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.

Steps:
- Thoroughly blend all ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the baste for garnish.
- Preheat grill to medium high. When grill is ready, baste halibut thoroughly before and during cooking. Grill approximately 4 to 6 minutes per side.
- Garnish with remaining Cilantro Cream.
Tips:
- Select the freshest halibut available: Look for firm, opaque flesh with a mild, slightly briny odor.
- Use a sharp knife to score the skin of the halibut: This will help the fish cook evenly and prevent it from curling.
- Season the halibut with salt and pepper before grilling: This will help to enhance the natural flavor of the fish.
- Grill the halibut over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the fish while keeping the inside moist and flaky.
- Baste the halibut with cilantro-garlic butter while grilling: This will help to keep the fish moist and add a delicious flavor.
- Serve the halibut immediately with your favorite sides: Grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a simple salad are all great options.
Conclusion:
Grilled halibut with cilantro-garlic butter is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. The fish is grilled to perfection and the cilantro-garlic butter adds a delicious flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
