My father discovered this Off the Boat Tartar Sauce on his fishing trip to Alaska. This sauce may be used as a dip or slathered over the halibut and encrusted on the top during grilling.

Categories     Fish

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 c mayonnaise
1 bunch green onions, chopped
2 tsp lemon pepper
4 halibut steaks
lemon juice, fresh
4 tsp blackening seasoning

Steps:

  • 1. In small bowl, combine mayonnaise, green onions, and lemon pepper. Squeeze lemon over each halibut steak and season with blackening seasoning or just top with 1/4 cup of tartar sauce, spread to cover one side.
  • 2. Preheat grill to medium high heat. Slightly grease grill. Place tartar encrusted halibut on grill. Grill for 10 minutes or until halibut flakes with fork. Serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • Choose the right halibut: Look for a firm, opaque flesh with no blemishes. Fresh halibut should have a mild, sweet smell.
  • Blacken the halibut properly: To achieve the signature blackened crust, heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle over high heat. Brush the halibut with oil, then season with the blackened seasoning. Cook the halibut for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the crust is formed.
  • Don't overcook the halibut: Halibut is a delicate fish, so it's important not to overcook it. Overcooked halibut will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the halibut immediately: Halibut is best served immediately after it's cooked. The blackened crust will soften as it sits, so it's best to enjoy it while it's still crispy.
  • Garnish the halibut with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, parsley, or chives, add a pop of color and flavor to blackened halibut.

Conclusion:

Blackened grilled halibut is a delicious, healthy, and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With its crispy blackened crust and tender, flaky flesh, blackened halibut is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy seafood recipe, give blackened grilled halibut a try!
