Halibut Veracruz

I wanted to share this fantastic recipe I tested over the weekend. I pulled it from my most favorite website, The Food Network. This recipe is a compilation of fresh ingredients from the gulf coast of Mexico, thus the name Halibut Veracruz. Seriously folks, this one is a keeper.



How fresh is that?

This recipe was super easy. I made a couple modifications to the recipe. I grilled the fish rather than baked it in butter. I also used chipotle green olives over the standard spanish green olive. For wine, I cooked with a dry Washington riesling from Gooseridge. Don't be shy when it comes to garnishing this dish. Pile on the cilantro and avocados. Avocados are heart healthy and literally full of nutrients. The California Avocado Association (CAA) believes that California Avocados may be one of nature's highest achievements. I think that speaks for itself.  The CAA also has an informative website that provides avocado preparation, nutrition information and some off the chart heart healthy recipes. I even saw one for baby food.  For more information visit http://www.avocado.org/.
