Review, Moroccan-spiced Halibut - esgunn - 04-10-2008
From the C@H special publication this last winter: Cusine For Two - the Moroccan-spiced Halibut with Sauteed Vegetables and Lemon-Parsley Cous Cous
It was delicious. We really liked the flavors. The Halibut cooked up perfectly and the blend of spicy with the sweetness of the honey and the apricots, oh it was very good. I did make a few changes to fit what I had in my refrigerator and my pantry. First the CousCous - I didn't have any. So I made brown rice but cooked it in the same flavors - in chicken stock and lemon juice and added the zest and parsley. I used the exact recipe for the spice rub - it was spicy but very good. The vegies - I didn't have brocollin - so used regular broccoli, and no zuchini and hubby is not a fan - so used asparagus. Other than that the cooking methods and everythign else was the same. I cooked slighly longer on the fish in the oven and slightly longer on the vegies. We will make again. We gave it a firm 8. I will try and type up the recipe tomorrow and add to the post.

Hmmm, that does look good, Erin. Haven't cooked anything out of that book yet. I've been eyeing the grilled sirloin steaks w/quinoa risotto - hope to get to that one soon.

Oh boy Erin...that sounds good without the recipe...one of those titles that gets the mouth watering. Can't wait for the recipe. Since I'll be doing Italian everyday at work I will play with the rest of the Middle East and North Africa on my days off like always...

That's one I have been eyeing. I will make sure that's on my list. Thanks for the review!

Thanks for the review Erin! I've looked at that one as well. Will be adding it to the to do list soon.

Thanx for the review, Erin. Don't know why I've passed that one over.

What are you all paying for Halibut?
Out here it's almost $20 a pound
Re: Review, Moroccan-spiced Halibut - esgunn - 04-11-2008
Denise, I was able to get some at Costco for 12.99 a pound. I was so happy that it wasn't $18.00 that I didn't think much that it was way more than I will pay for other stuff. But it was so fresh and so good - their flash frozen fillets were 13.99 a pound.

Erin, or any of the others, could this recipe make it to this thread if you or any one else with it has a chance. I LOVE the tastes of North Africa more than Greek or Italian.
