Grilled Halibut With Lemon Herb Crust

---

I was looking for recipes to cook halibut seeing as i caught 2 from a deep sea fishing trip off of vancouver island. the first one i caught was 46 lb and the second one was 27 lb. i found this recipe from a hellman's pamphlet. i made a couple of changes to suit our taste. we love doing halibut this way. the topping keeps the fish moist. we had our halibut cut into 1 lb. Servings so we bbq it in one piece and then cut it into portions. the recipe says it serves 4 but my husband and i split it ourselves.
