Notes
Substitute halibut for any white fish. Hake, cod, sea bass, rockfish, tilapia, all work great.
For naturally thin cuts of white fish, such as tilapia and rockfish, reduce the cook time by 5 minutes.
If you are out of oregano, substitute for marjoram
You may substitute fresh thyme for a teaspoon of dried thyme
