Coconut Fish

Tonight we decided to have Grilled Cilantro Fish in Coconut Broth.  This was another selection from our Cuisine for Two cookbook and was another winner.  The halibut was marinated in a cilantro and garlic marinade before it was grilled.  The recipe also included a sauce made with ginger, coconut milk, and serrano chile peppers.  We included black rice and roasted brussel sprouts for a delicious meal.  The halibut was great but the sauce was amazing and the black rice lent some body to the dish. 
It was a fantastic meal which we paired with a Vouvray wine.  Vouvray is a French white wine which went very well with the fish.  We topped off the dinner with a desert of pumpkin pie (seems like it is now fall).  The wine went superb with the pie but I have a suspicion it would have gone even better with chocolate.
