White Fish With Chickpea Ragu

I found this recipe in a Woman's Day magazine, and it's delish! This healthier version of ragu is as delicious as it is versatile: Pair it with chicken, pork, beef or even eggs—simply make a small well in the ragu and crack the egg(s) into it, cooking until desired doneness, about 3 to 4 minutes for a runny yolk.

Fabulous base, made better with some sherry splashed in with onions and garlic; cooked al dente orecchiette added half way thru the simmer; fresh garden tomatoes instead of canned; a couple handfuls of fresh torn spinach; thinly-sliced lemon and a pad of butter on top of each piece of halibut as it poached/steamed (I used 4 fillets, around 1.75 lbs total), and all of it done in a roomy wok. Oh, and some sumac and turmeric added to the spice bill. Omg, sooooo good.
