Place all the ingredients in a food processor and blend until a paste is formed. If it needs help blending, add either water or a little oil. Set aside.

Take the marinade and lather the halibut fillets. Put in the fridge for an hour. In the last 10 minutes of the fish marinating, roast the veggies.
In a skillet with a top, heat the oil on medium high heat. Place the fish in the skillet with as much marinade as sticks to the fish. Add the stock and cover the skillet with the lid. Cook for 8 - 12 minutes until the fish is cooked through and no longer opaque. Remove the fish from the skillet and let rest for a minute or so.
Add the remaining marinade to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes.
To serve, put rice in the bowl and top with the halibut. Put the veggies next to the fish, and top with as much of the salsa as you desire. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
To test the doneness of the halibut, press the fish with a finger. The fish should be pretty soft to the touch. If it is still firm, then it is not cooked through.
