    I like that this Cooking Light cookbook pairs entrees with sides on the same page (199). In this case, the side is Grilled Zucchini and Red bell pepper with Corn. Because both are grilled, the directions would be better to direct that the zucchini and bell pepper be put on the grill earlier and grilled two minutes longer (5 minutes per side) than the halibut (4 minutes each side). My husband grilled them together and took them off at the same time and the zucchini and red bell indeed needed two minutes more grill time. I made the pesto ahead of time. It's very lemony which adds depth to the rather bland halibut. Nonetheless, this was a healthy, fresh tasting dinner which we paired with a Chardonnay and green salad. A keeper!
