Oven-baked Mediterranean-style halibut
This dish is so easy, yet so flavoursome. This is a favourite in our household. If you like your food hot, try sprinkling on some crushed chillies or cayenne pepper for that extra kick.

Oh so so tasty, simple, looks restaurant good, thanks - 27 Apr 2013
This made for a quick, delicious and satisfying lunch made with a combination of ingredients very familiar to me. Using Greek seasoning, however, was not something I've used often and I enjoyed it. Can't beat a dish that requires such little clean-up, is SO good for you and so flavorful. Other than using grouper instead of halibut (any mild flavored white fish would work) I made this with the ingredients as directed, just winging it with measurements. While I did miss the golden color that comes from grilling, roasting or sauteing, I was nevertheless very pleased with this, and since this calls for ingredients I always have in my kitchen, it's something I plan to treat myself to frequently. - 28 Jan 2010 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
