Halibut in a Wine and Caper Sauce
We were the luckly recepients of fresh halibut recently. The simplicity of the preparation made the taste of the fish shine through and take centre stage. I would have rated this, or in some cases, better than some 5 star restaurants. Weight Watcher Friendly 3 points

- Deglaze the skillet with the white wine and lemon juice. Pour over the halibut.
- Cook the fish for 12 - 15 minutes or until it lightly flakes.
- Serve with some of the browned wine/caper sauce over the fish.
