I never had halibut before and it was delicious with this recipe. I had bought frozen halibut from Costco and defrosted it in the refrigerator over night. I did almost exactly what the recipe says except I used only about 4 tablespoons of butter and for the broth I dissolved a knorr's vegetable bullion cube and used about 4 tablespoons of that. I wish I had used more broth, it was very tasty with the browned butter. The recipe calls for 2 halibut steaks, I made 3, so I thought I would need to increase the nut/bread crumbs so I made 1/3 cup of each, it was way too much, the regular recipe is enough for at least 4 steaks. Overall it was an excellent dinner; and it was so easy and quick to make. I will definitely make it again.

I am rating the mashed potatoes only which I prepared with a different halibut recipe. Overall the potatoes were delicious but I would use slightly less garlic...5 cloves is a lot unless they're all small cloves. I would also add a little bit of milk to make these potatoes creamier. Just add until the consistency is how you like it. Without a bit of milk, we found the potatoes too dry. Otherwise I'd rate the potatoes higher.

I am only rating the halibut....and it was great! I used panko bread crumbs because I like a nice crisp crust. It turned out perfectly. My 3 yr old kept shoving it in his mouth. I'm always looking for new ways to jazz up fish, so this is a keeper! Thanks for sharing this one.

Delicious!! The crust on this halibut is so, so good! I loved the mashed potatoes because I love garlic, but some of you might want to cut down from 5 cloves, but if you love buttery, garlicy mashed potatoes with tender halibut you will love this recipe! This is my new favorite and I can't wait to try this out on other fish. Loved it!
