“White Zinfandel”?
Moist and delicious way to prepare fresh pacific nw halibut cheeks, will definitely make again & again
Thank you
Thank you
This is an amazing dish. I served, as directed in the recipe, to my culinary trained daughter-in-law and she loved it.
I loved it! I did make some changes … added black pepper and Old Bay seasoning…skillet braised the fillets…after removing the fillets from sauce added Uncle Bens rice pilaf along with cooked frozen vegetables as a side. Will defiantly make this again and again! Oh…I did not have everything the recipe called for so there were no capers or lemon zest. I used frozen/fresh lemon juice… tasted great! This shows how versatile this recipe is.
I have made this recipe many times. Halibut is the perfect fish for this dish. I have tried it with grouper, snapper, mahi, and flounder, although edible no other fish absorbs the flavors like the halibut does. Planning on making it tonight with asparagus in the foil.
Really easy and tasty. I opted not to grill in the foil packet, but pan braised instead. Turned out wonderful and tender.
This was really good. I cut the recipe in half as I only had a little more than half pound of halibut cheeks. I would definetly make this again for this fish or any other white fish as well. My husband really liked it too. I bbq’d it in foil for 10 minutes. I didn’t see where it said how long or what temp to cook it at. It turned out quite good though!!
Bland…
