Grilled Halibut
2
- Season the halibut steaks with salt and pepper.
- Place the halibut in a container and cover with the 1/2 cup glaze, turning the halibut over to completely coat. The remaining glaze will be used for basting and serving.
- Marinate for 10 minutes.
- Oil the grates of the grill and heat to medium-high.
- Grill the halibut for 4-5 minutes on each side. We like to use a copper mesh grilling sheet or fish grilling basket.
- Test the halibut for doneness with an instant read thermometer (internal temperature of 130-135 degrees F) or cut open to make sure the halibut is cooked through. Should be opaque in color.
- Remove from the grill, baste with additional reserved glaze, and serve.
