Lemon-Poached Halibut - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 onion, thinly sliced
    1 Tbsp. olive oil
    2 c. defatted stock
    1 head romaine lettuce, cut into 1-inch squares
    4 lemons, juiced
    pinch of ground white pepper
    4 halibut fillets (6 oz. each)
    2 Tbsp. water
    1 Tbsp. cornstarch
    1/4 c. snipped chives
    1 Tbsp. capers
Preparation
    In a large, nonstick frying pan over medium heat, saute the onion in the oil until transparent, about 5 minutes.
    Add stock; bring to a boil.
    Add lettuce; cook until it starts to wilt, about 2 to 3 minutes.
    Stir in the lemon juice and pepper.
    Add the fish and cook until just firm to the touch, about 5 minutes.
    Carefully drain the excess liquid from the pan into a 2-quart saucepan.
    Over high heat, cook until reduced by half, about 5 to 7 minutes.
