   Prepare the Mashed Potatoes

   Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and mash them with butter, salt, and pepper to taste. Set aside.

   Roast the Artichokes

   In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add artichoke hearts and sauté until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper.

3. 3

   Sauté the Arugula

   In the same skillet, add the arugula and sauté briefly until just wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.

4. 4

   Prepare the Caper Lemon Butter Sauce

   In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add capers and lemon juice, stirring to combine. Keep warm.

5. 5

   Cook the Halibut

   Season halibut fillets with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the halibut for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.

6. 6

   Prepare the Smoked Prosciutto Powder

   Finely chop or blend the smoked prosciutto until it resembles a powder.

   Plate the Dish
