HALIBUT AND ASPARAGUS STIR-FRY"Serve this spring stir-fry with white or brown rice. Use quick-cooking rice if you're in a hurry. If you use regular rice, start it cooking before you start the stir-fry. Long-grain white rice cooks in about 20 minutes; brown rice needs 35 to 40 minutes."
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1/2 lb halibut fillet, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1/4 cup thin onion wedges (1/2 small onion)
8 oz fresh asparagus spears, cut into 1-inch pieces (2 cups)
1 small red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (1 cup)
1/3 cup stir-fry sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon honey
