Ingredients

1/4 cup butter
2 cloves garlic minced
1/4 cup dry white wine
4 halibut steaks about 6 oz. each
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 avocado ripe, peeled, pitted, & sliced lengthwise
4 slices monterey jack cheese
1/4 cup pitted black olives

Directions

1

In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add garlic & saute until soft, about 1 minute. Stir in wine & remove from heat.
2

Place halibut steaks in large dish. Pour wine mixture evenly over steaks, covers, & marinate 30 minutes in refrigerator.

Preheat broiler. Remove fish from marinade, reserving marinade, & place on broiler pan. Broil 3 to 4 inches from heat about 6 minutes on the first side. Turn & brush with reserved marinade & broil until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, about 6 minutes longer.

Remove from broiler & season with salt. Top each steak with an equal amount of avocado slices & then a cheese slice. Sprinkle with olives (if using). Return to broiler & broil until cheese melts, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with paprika. Transfer to a warmed platter and serve immediately.
