    I made this tonight with halibut fillets my husband brought home from an Alaskan fishing trip. It might have been a four or five star recipe had I used less than the amount of salt the recipe called for (it seemed quite high when I read the recipe, but I followed it none-the-less. I thought the fillets were extremely salty, and even a bit too peppery. Next time, I would use no more than one teaspoon of salt and two teaspoons of pepper. The fish was perfectly cooked, using the timing given and the tomatoes were delicious (I used large yellow heirloom tomatoes that I cut in two-inch chunks. I also followed some reviewers suggestions by substituting a third of the lemon juice with white wine and thought the flavor (helped by the garlic was very good.
