Well...it sounded good...but overall this is waaay too salty, even after using low sodium soy sauce. Maybe reducing the marinating time would help others. I'm not trying this again.

First, I have to agree with the reviewer that said that the flavors overwhelmed the halibut. Second, there was a reviewer that cut the topping ingredients in half, and I think that would improve it overall.

I usually love how Guy layers flavors, marinade, rub, sauce, all in the same dish. But, for this dish, I'm not sure it was even necessary to marinate the fish, since the topping flavors were so overwhelming. I liked the combination of Asian flavors, but my husband thought it was "sweeter" than he expected. Cooking (and turning is kind of difficult with the coating piled up so high. That made my coating get a little "over-carmelized" (or burnt? on the outside while the topping underneath stayed a little mushy for my taste. (The burnt bits from the skillet weren't so bad, though

This was a fun recipe to make and the combination of flavors were great. It would have been easier to make if the recipe followed Guy's instruction on the show, such as finishing the fish in the oven, not just keeping it warm. Also, the portions are huge! So if you have less than a Big Bite appetite, just cut back on the ingredients a bit.

The recipe sounded great to my husband and me when we watched the episode but it tasted nothing like we anticipated. I followed the recipe to the T but the topping was too salty. The fish also took longer than the 2 minutes.

The recipe was a good try on unique ingredients but I will not try again and would not recommend.

I love asian food, and I have children, so anything with tater tots I want to try. This is tastes great and is easy. I did the frying part as written (two at a time, taking them out and putting on an oven safe pan. rather than the way he did it on TV (doing all 4 at once and putting the frying pan into the oven. Two at a time is easier to manage, especially when you have to flip the tater-tot coated fish. My husband ate the bits that fell off during frying and he loved them. My kids liked it, too. We'll definitely do this again.
