Very easy and delivers great flavor.  Adjusted recipe for 2 fillets, each 5 oz, 1 1/2 inches thick.  I did replace fish stock with claim juice -- worked fine.  The sauce reminded me of Hungarian Goulash -- my husband said to make the sauce even if we don't have Halibut-- that's how much he liked the flavor -- I think Chicken or pork tenderloin could be used.  Definitely make rice or noodles to enjoy all the sauce.  Very  easy recipe with great flavors -- a keeper.
