______________________________

Over thirty years ago I first had this recipe (halibut version) while staying at the Sheffield House Hotel in Sitka Alaska. The original recipe called for mayonnaise instead of sour cream, but I find that light sour cream works beautifully without adding unnecessary fat and calories while still preserving a really tasty piece of fish.
