Herb and Wine Halibut Steak

ratherbeswimmin''s Note:

Been on a fish-cooking frenzy. Husband and I tried this one and liked it quite well. The herb amounts are pretty reasonable estimates. We actually just sprinkled the herbs onto the steaks till it looked right.

The sauce was a bit too sour, and the bass didn't have much taste. I don't think I'll make this again.
