GRILLED HALIBUT WITH SUMMER SALSA
Steps:
- For the salsa: Combine all the vegetables in a bowl. Chop cilantro finely. Mix rice wine vinegar, sugar, salt, lime juice, and fish sauce together until well blended. Add all chopped vegetables and cilantro to the mixture. Mix well.
- For the halibut: Season with sea salt and pepper. Place the halibut directly onto a hot grill for a few minnutes. Then using tongs or a spatula give the halibut a quarter turn to create the second set of marks resulting in a crisscross pattern. When it's time to flip it, repeat the process of grilling for a few minutes and then give it a quarter turn. Remove from grill and finish in the oven.
- Assembly: Spoon a nice mound of salsa in the center of each plate, adding a bit of the salsa juice. Place the halibut fillet on top. Garnish with chili threads and microgreens. Add chili oil to edges of salsa for color and heat. Enjoy!
GRILLED PACIFIC HALIBUT WITH MANGO SALSA
This sweet and spicy salsa goes beautifully with a firm, white fish like halibut. Make sure your mango is very ripe. Mangos are a good source of potassium, vitamin A and beta-carotene. You would think that such a sweet fruit would be high in calories, but because of all the water in a juicy mango, the caloric content is relatively low - about 135 calories in a whole mango, according to nutritionist and author Jonny Bowden.

Steps:
- Finely dice the mango. Cut down the broad side of the mango, slightly off center, from the stem end to the tip end. The knife should scrape against the side of the pit. Repeat on the other side, cutting as close to the pit as possible. Cut the flesh from the sides of the pit, following the curve of the pit. Lay each half on your cutting surface, and score with the tip of your knife in a cross-hatch pattern, down to the skin but not through it. Turn the mango half inside out, and slice the cubes away from the skin. Then cut the cubes into very small dice.
- Toss the mango in a bowl with the chiles, cilantro, mint, jicama and lime juice. Season with salt if desired. Cover the bowl, and allow to sit for an hour while you prepare your grill.
- Heat a medium-hot grill (or heat an indoor griddle or grill pan). Season the halibut fillets or steaks with salt and pepper, and toss with the olive oil in a bowl. Place the fish directly over the coals, and grill for four to five minutes per side, depending on the thickness. The fish should be opaque all the way through, and you should be able to pull it apart with a fork.
- Remove the fish to a plate or a platter. Serve with the salsa spooned partially over the fish and partially on the side. Alternately, spoon the salsa onto plates and set the fish on top. Garnish with lime wedges and serve.

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH PINEAPPLE CHIPOTLE SALSA
Halibut is a low fat, very mild flavored fish with a firm flaky meat. It is easily available year round, relatively inexpensive, easy to grill and lends itself to almost any flavor. I found this recipe in the local Living Magazine & was intrigued by the salsa. I'm sure it would be wonderful with any mild fish such as grouper, flounder or snapper.

Steps:
- Plump raisins in rum for 30 minutes; drain.
- Heat grill to medium high heat. Brush pineapple slices with oil & grill until lightly caramelized on both sides. Cool & cut into 1/2" pieces; put in mixing bowl.
- Combine chipotles, lime juice, orange zest & juice. Whisk in olive oil. Pour over pineapple chunks, fold in green onion, red pepper, cilantro & raisins. Salt to taste. Set aside.
- Brush halibut heavily with oil & grill just until fish is opaque throughout, gently turning once. The grilling time on halibut is pretty short so keep a close eye on it to avoid over cooking. *** A 1-inch halibut steak will grill up in about 10 minutes over a medium high heat. Thinner cuts and fillets can cook in as little time as 6 minutes.
- Serve topped with salsa.
Tips:
- Choose the right halibut: Look for firm, opaque flesh that is free of any blemishes or discoloration. Fresh halibut should have a mild, slightly briny smell.
- Marinate the halibut: Marinating the halibut in a mixture of citrus juices, herbs, and spices will help to infuse it with flavor and keep it moist during grilling.
- Grill the halibut over medium heat: This will help to prevent the fish from sticking to the grill and will ensure that it cooks evenly throughout.
- Make the pineapple-lime salsa just before serving: This will ensure that the salsa is fresh and flavorful.
- Serve the grilled halibut with the pineapple-lime salsa and your favorite sides: Some popular options include grilled vegetables, rice, or quinoa.
Conclusion:
Grilled halibut with pineapple-lime salsa is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion. The halibut is cooked to perfection and the salsa is a refreshing and flavorful complement to the fish. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
