Amazing..a ton of pots and pans, but well worth it! I used only 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, and I used tilapia. The only step I'd say to take out was putting the creme in a dish of hot water--I just heated it up in the microwave before serving. Best fish recipe!

Very very good. No complaints or suggestions on how to adjust the recipe. Perhaps the name could be shorter...:)

Family loved this, despite the high cost of the halibut! I felt the sauce was a bit tangy even though I didnt even add the lemon juice. I think next time I would try with balsamic vinegar instead of cider. Definately double or 1 and 1/2 the sauce though as it doesnt make as much as I thought.

My husband made this for dinner the other night and it was delicious. I am not usually fond of fish but ended up having second helpings and our 3 year old wolfed also it down. I don't know how much work it was because I was kicked out of the kitchen while the "chef" was at work but it was worth the effort. (He said it took about 45-50 mins to prepare which isn't too bad) Halibut isn't an inexpensive fish but it's worth going to the trouble of obtaining it if you can because the combination of this fish and the other flavours in this recipe was wonderful. We're fortunate that we can get wild Alaskan halibut locally and have already bought more just so we can make this again!

Delicious! I made this for my boyfriend's birthday dinner, and he raved! I recommend reducing the amount of lemon in the sauce, it was a little tart (and I like lemon). Otherwise, perfect served with wild rice & roasted asparagus. I didn't think it was overly time consuming, or difficult.

This dish was not worth all the work for me. The sauce was very time consuming to prepare and it minimally added to the overall dish. Sorry.

I expected this to be a lot harder than it really was, but it wasn't that bad at all. It keeps you busy though! I took the advice of others and made sure all the ingredients were layed out ahead of time in order and ready to go. The end product was spectacular!! My husband said it was comparable to any fancy restaurant we'd ever been to! This will definitely become a staple in our house. Oh yeah and I substitued macadamia's instead of almonds which I don't really care for. I thought it was better this way, but I'm sure it's just personal preference.

What a fancy, elegant dish! Halibut is such a mild, light fish! For anyone afraid of "fishy" tasting fish, this is the one for you!! Halibut is costly, so don't be surprised when you see the proce tage, but it is really great for a special occasion. Feels like fine restraurant dining at home! Thanks!

A complicated recipe with a lot of special ingredients, but definitely gourmet and very delicious. Good for a planned small dinner party, not something you'd cook up with what you have in the kitchen on a weeknight after work. I've made it with frozen halibut (very good) & with fresh salmon (EXCELLENT).

The closest thing to 'gourmet' that I have ever made! It looked and tasted like fine restaurant quality! I took advice of others into consideration tho: 1) Didn't know Halibut was so expensive...got 2 fillets for $19.95 (about a lb which was plenty for a romantic meal for you and your spouse) 2) Still made the full recipe for sauce so we would have enough...it was perfect for 2 people, 3) The sauce takes the longest about 30 mins, and you use alot of bowls/utinsels for this recipe..so have all that out, prep food & cut, sliced, chop first, and have an empty dishwasher, 4) used a fine strainer cuz I didn't have a seive, and 5) don't tell any health concious person how you made the sauce!! I served with a simple orzo recipe from this site and made that while making the sauce...excellent meal, but next time I'll go lighter with a side and have a salad. Get a babysitter, candles, and a a nice white wine with this and enjoy your night!

It might be the fact that this was on the top 10 list of 'best recipes' on this site, but I was pretty disappointed and so were my friends. I'm further disappointed that nobody in town had halibut except the local Fresh market which charge 18 dollars a pound - it cost me about 70 dollars total to buy everything to make this dish for four people. The sauce did get a lot of positive comments, but considering how LONG it too to make, how many dishes and counters I got dirty making it, and how LITTLE the recipes actually yields in the end, I would suggest doubling the sauce recipe, at least. If you end up with leftovers, oh well - the sauce isn't expensive. The halibut itself - I don't know. I just wasn't impressed with the texture. I think I could have let it sear a bit longer in the pan and cook less in the oven.

RATING THE SAUCE ONLY - as I nabbed it to compliment my chicken breasts topped with shrimp. :-) I'm not a big fish eater, but I do like shellfish. Anyway, I'm giving the sauce a 5 star rating, though next time I will further reduce the amount of lemon (I doubled the recipie but NOT the lemon) and will go even less next time, because the lemon makes it a little too "bright" for my taste. However, that said...as is, I would serve this sauce to company. It is marvelous and not at all hard to make. Time consuming...not particularly, not if you are multi tasking. Thanks!

I halved this recipe and it turned out great. If I'm going to make it for company (and I probably will), I would increase the amount of sauce slightly. I think doubling would be too much. It went great with a simple side of steamed asparagus.
