    not really a fan of pumpkin seeds, but i would make this. however, i can't help but wonder if he noticed the fact that one of the eggs he used to dredge the fish was bloody. kinda turned me off to the dish while i was watching the episode. :(

    Guy, this was absolutely great!! The halibut was a little pricey, but in the end it was worth it. I'm not quite sure why you need to finish it off in the oven. Next time I will try and just cook it slowly in the pan. The flavors were amazing!

    Can't wait to try this receipe with tilapia. Be sure and make extra sauce. It's scrumptious.

    First time I cooked Halibut at home but won't be my last. I didn't have pepitas so I substituted sunflower seeds - tasted delicious. Sauce makes the dish. Perfect for serving guests!

    Guy, you rock!! I don't make a lot of fish. This was awesome!! I am more familiar with cod, so I used that instead of halibut. The cod was cut in non-uniform sizes, next time I would make sure all the thicknesses were the same for even cooking times.
    I optimistically doubled the sauce recipe and used an entire serrano. I thought the heat was perfect. I also do not have a stick blender, so I put the sauce in a little "Magic Bullet" blender. Perfect. I also wanted a Mexican-y side dish and served corn with red bell pepper. The sauce "accidentally" got on the corn. Wow! I was glad I had extra sauce. Actually, I can think of a lot of things that sauce would be good on. Great recipe, easy and received raves.

    I made this last week and my bf was apprensive when he saw the ingredients on the counter but it turned out to be one of the yummiest dishes ever! Unfortunately I did cut back on the serrano in the sauce but won't make that mistake twice. I'm making this again for a dinner party this w'end. Highly recommended!

    Everything was easy to prepare. Like a previous review, the halibut wasn't easy to find. I had to buy it frozen at Trader Joes. The serano cream was good, but I didn't blend it up cause I was over making another dirty dish! It still came out great, but it got a little less creamy when I added the lime juice (it didn't look as silky. I think I would hold off on the lime next time and squirt it right over the fish, then add the sauce minus the lime! I made this along with the green chile mashers which were amazing. I will for sure make these two again!
