Roasted Halibut with Walnut Crunch

This roasted halibut is another tasty and easy recipe.
You will find the chopped walnuts, herbs, and panko to be a crisp, flavorful coating for the halibut fillets. Makes 6 servings

You can interchange parsley and basil or use both.  In fact, this recipe is almost as tasty without herbs, so don't let that stop you if you don't have any.
