4-12 Ounce to 1 Pound Halibut Fillets
8 Tablespoons Butter
1/2 Cup Onion chopped
1/3 Cup Celery chopped
1/3 Cup Red or Green Bell Pepper (or both)-Chopped
1 Pound Crab Meat
2 Cups day old bread crumbled
1 egg beaten
1 tablespoon mayo
1 Tablespoon Parsley Chopped
1 Tablespoon Sherry
Dash Salt

Juice of 1 Lemon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Heat 4 tablespoon of the butter in a large iron skillet to just foaming on medium.
Add onion when butter foams, celery and bell peppers and cook until the onion gets soft, about 5 minutes.
Set aside and let cool and wipe out the skillet
Toss the veggies with the crab meat, bread, eggs, parsley, mayo and sherry in a large bowl, seasoning with a few dashes of salt and pepper.
Cut a slit with a knife into the halibut along the side, making a pocket for stuffing.
Stuff the halibut with the mixture.
Add some of the melted butter and the halibut to the skillet.
Mix the remaining melted butter with the lemon juice, garlic and pour it over the halibut.
Bake for 30-45 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Serve immediately, and add some of the sauce left in the pan.
