Step 1
Place onion, parsley, cilantro, lemon zest, lemon juice, olives, capers, garlic and pepper in a food processor; pulse several times to chop. Add oil and process, scraping down the sides several times, until a pesto-like paste forms. Pat halibut with the herb paste. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Very little flavor Wow. I love Eating Well and regularly use recipes from the website and have been a subscriber for many years. My whole family agreed that this was not a hit. Not much flavor, even though we tripled the garlic. Just a boring dish. Pros: none Cons: No flavor to the sauce

Such a great dish and easy to make the sauce. And the best thing is that you can use the sauce for other light meats such as chicken -- you may get away with it for beef such as a steak. Or even a burger. I am surprised that no one has commented on this. But this has a great jest and have it a juicy flavor to the fish.
