Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality halibut: Look for halibut fillets that are firm and have a mild, sweet smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
- Season the halibut well: Before grilling, season the halibut fillets generously with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. This will help to enhance the natural flavor of the fish.
- Grill the halibut over medium heat: Grilling the halibut over medium heat will help to prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry. Cook the halibut for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Make the roasted tomato-tequila salsa ahead of time: The roasted tomato-tequila salsa can be made up to 3 days in advance. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Serve the tacos with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for grilled halibut tacos include shredded cabbage, diced avocado, sour cream, and salsa. You can also add a squeeze of lime juice for extra flavor.
