Delicious, simple, and colorful, this entrée is a wonderful weeknight meal. The lemony halibut cooks quickly under the broiler. It’s a lean fish with a tender texture that also works well when sautéed and grilled. If needed, you can substitute grouper or cod. Traditional wild rice takes anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour to cook, so you’ll want to start that first. Or, purchase a par-cooked variety, which will speed cook time considerably. You’ll need to zest the lemon before you squeeze the juice over the fish—it’s much easier that way. Add a mixed green salad to complete the meal.
