Halibut in a Wine and Caper Sauce Recipe #316946
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.

- 2 tablespoons capers, rinsed
- Preheat oven to 425.

- Cook the fish for 12 - 15 minutes or until it lightly flakes.
