Categories     Main Dish

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 4-6 oz skinless halibut fillets
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)
3 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
4 Tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
1 Tablespoons fresh thyme
juice of 1 whole lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat. Preheat your grill 375 degrees F.
  • Prep the fish. Place the halibut fillet in a shallow baking dish. Combine all of the ingredients for the butter in a small bowl and pour over your halibut fillets.
  • Season. Gently toss the fillet to ensure all sides are evenly coated in the butter. Season all sides with freshly cracked pepper and salt.
  • Oil the grill. Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil. Pinch the paper towel between tongs and wipe it on the grates of your grill to prevent the halibut from sticking while it grills.
  • Grill the halibut. Place the seasoned halibut directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and grill for 5-7 minutes. Flip them, close the lid, and grill until the internal temperature of the halibut reads 145 degrees F. You want your fish to be opaque and just start to flake.
  • Serve. Remove the grilled halibut from the grill. Serve hot with lemon wedges.
