Submitted by Cynna

"Smoked paprika provides a nice contrast for the sweetness of halibut. You can substitute snapper or any firm white fish if you can't find fresh halibut. From Cooking Light July 2007"

Restaurant quality, yet so simple to make. The smoked paprika makes it. Thank you.

This fish was really simple and easy to prepare, yet surprisingly flavorful. We loved it. I served it with a side of roasted butternut squash. I would definitely make this again. Thanks for a keeper!
