Halibut

So I used to make tilapia all the time when I lived in LA and it was no big deal and it never smelled or anything-- it was just good and simple so the other day, we decided to make Halibut because homegirl eats fish now and we found some sort of Veracruz or whatever the fuck type of mexican recipe that required us to bake the fish after you sear it and the whole time I kept thinking-- how is this thing going to have any flavor if all you do is pat some salt and pepper on the outside and of course it didn't have much flavor although after we mashed it up with the rice and sauce it was a little better but-- the entire house smells like the most nasty third world country kitchen which I don't really mind if it was my place but it's not and it's not going away so now everyone's pissed because who the hell wants that so what I'm saying is-- fuck baking halibut.
