The marinade sounded good but it didn't impart much taste to the fish. The halibut tasted pretty bland. I've discovered that when you dilute orange juice in a recipe it loses a lot of the orange flavor. Maybe using orange juice concentrate undiluted would give it more flavor. I'll try this again using 1/4 cup of concentrate and see what happens. Will use a little more garlic also.

This was an awesome recipe! GIves the fish a great taste without masking over the taste of the halibut. Was quick to make and easy to cleanup! I've used this recipe several times over the last year and everyone that tries it likes it!

Great addition to my fish cookbook. Love the combination of orange and coriander, which give the recipe the fresh notes. To marinate the fish will make the flesh very soft and tender. So don't overcook it here. Instead of grilling I have broiled the halibut. It was jsut to cold outside and broiling gives me a bit mor control of doneness. I reserve the marinade and drizzle some of it over the ahlibut after I have broiled it. This adds a nice and fruity touch to the fish. A very easy to make and light fish recipe. Thanks for sharing.
