This light and delicious fish incorporates the simple, delicate flavors of lemon, oregano and rosemary. Freshly squeezed lemon juice brightens the flavor of the sauce. Generally, one lemon yields 2 to 3 tablespoons of juice. We added cornstarch to the sauce to slightly thicken it. Be sure not to overcook the cornstarch mixture when boiling. When selecting halibut, look for fillets that are light green to translucent. Halibut can dry out easily so be sure not to overcook it. You can also substitute flounder or cod for the halibut in this recipe. Pair this dish with grilled vegetables. Garnish with a few sprigs of parsley.
