My DH and I loved this recipe. The only thing I did differently was used cobia instead of halibut and added an extra jalepeno. Excellent!

I love the taste and combo of Guy's unique recipe ingredients, and this dish adds to my list of favs. My husband requests fish often, and I get tired of the same flavors over and over. Then I saw olives in this mix I was afraid it might be too much, but the those darn morsels added the absolute right pzzazz to the plate. Even my sauce wary guy became more alert while succumbing to this delectable treat, and I know Hali Vera will join our table again soon.

This was actually pretty easy to make and only took about 1/2 hour total with prep. Make sure you have a SS pan that can transfer to the oven. This dish was light but filling and paired perfectly with garlic mashed potatoes. Just enough "kick" with the jalapenos - and the olives were a surprising but complimentary addition. I'm planning on serving this at my next dinner party. It plated beautifully.

After preparing the dish "as is", I placed each cooked halibut cheek on a homemade crispy corn tortilla, put the sauce on top, added the sliced avocado and cilantro, then topped with minced fresh jalapeno from my garden. The crispiness of the tortilla and added heat of the jalapeno tasted like the best of Vera Cruz to this Texas girl! Thanks, Guy, for another great dish!

ok. i am not a good cook-things come out bland, however, so glad i picked up halibut on the way home and found this recipe. i was just going to broil with lemon & garlic, because that's all i know. but tried it and did the pan thing with olive spray & tab of butter. did the sauce with red onion, hot sauce from trader joes for jalepeno, (all i had- "aih". just used lemon-"aih" and no cilantro-even tho i had it! too lazy. even used a sauce pan to make the sauce instead of a skillet. this recipe gives me hope that maybe i can whip up a good fish dish. it was flavorful, and you want to dredge the juice up with bread. which, i didn't have. ps. i used canned diced tomatoes. is that a crime? enjoy!

We really enjoyed this recipe! I made it as instructed, except had to use jarred/pickled jalepeno, as it's what I had. : The vegetable/wine base was flavorful, yet not so overpowering that it would take away from the delicate halibut flavor. The avocado, cilantro, and lime as the final topping, really made a lasting impression on this dish! Clean flavors, and a pretty presentation. Very easy to make, too! Started at 7, done by 7:30. Minimal clean-up.. even a bigger plus. : Oh, make sure to use a stainless steel or oven-proof skillet so that you don't have any problems transferring from stovetop to oven. Thanks, Guy!

Made this for supper tonight and just had to review right away. It is absolutely delicious. The lime at the end really pops the flavor. Thanks, Guy. We will be fixing this over and over!

Made this recipe for a very picky family...including me. I'm not a fish eater but this recipe will turn me into one. Husband Loved it. Very easy to make. Fish was tender and not over done. I forgot to add the olives. but great anyway. the avocado was so creamy. will make this dish many more times.

I made this with the recommended halibut and it was soooo good. I found it very easy to make and the cilantro gave it such a bright, vibrant flavor. We loved, loved this!

Tasty, not complicated, not too many ingredients. All the flavors are great together, and no one thing was overpowering. We really enjoyed it.
Our grocery store didn't have Halibut, so we had to use Tilapia. It fell apart a bit, so it was appeared to be more "goulash" style, but was a good dish regardless!
