3. Add the fish stock, Chardonnay, clams and mussels. Place a lid on the pot and cook until the shellfish open (about 5 minutes).
4. Add the chopped cilantro, reduce heat, and keep warm.
5. In the meantime, season the halibut steaks with olive oil and salt. Sear the halibut in a nonstick, well-seasoned skillet until golden and just cooked, about 3 minutes per side.
