If you have a lot of basil, double the oil for this pan-seared fish recipe. It doesn't take any more time to make and it's delicious whisked into dressings, drizzled over grilled vegetables and used to make garlic bread. The same technique works well for lots of other herbs, too—think: tarragon, parsley, chives.
¾ cup fresh basil stems and leaves, divided
2 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 pint cherry tomatoes
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
2 tablespoons minced shallot
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided
2 pounds skin-on halibut or salmon, cut into 6 pieces
