Halibut with Lime Garlic Sauce

My youngest son and his friend made this delicious halibut with lime garlic sauce dish for dinner when they hung out at her place couple of weeks ago. They had some left-overs and my son brought it home so I was able to taste it. It was so good, we decided to recreate it at home last week. I love this dish because it has only a few easy accessible ingredients and it is super easy to make as well. You just have to combine all the sauce ingredients and spread it over the fish. The sauce kept the fish nice and moist while it was in the oven baking.  Furthermore, the combination of garlic, mayonnaise, lime juice and zest made this dish smell so great and taste so flavorful. My family and I enjoyed it so much, we decided to make it again soon. This time, we are thinking of using a less expensive fish. I am pretty sure it will taste great as well. Enjoy!
