Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-ounce each) Halibut fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 cups (diced) Pineapple
- 1 medium (diced) Red bell pepper
- 0.5 medium (finely diced) Red onion
- 0.25 cup (chopped) Cilantro
- 1 pepper (finely chopped) Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Pat the halibut fillets dry with a paper towel. Brush each fillet with olive oil on both sides, then season evenly with salt and black pepper.
In a medium bowl, combine diced pineapple, red bell pepper, red onion, and chopped cilantro.
Add the finely chopped chipotle pepper, lime juice, and honey to the pineapple mixture. Stir well to combine and set the salsa aside to let the flavors meld.
Place the halibut fillets on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is opaque in the center.
Remove the halibut from the grill and let it rest for 2 minutes.
Serve each fillet with a generous spoonful of the pineapple chipotle salsa on top. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
Enjoy your Grilled Halibut with Pineapple Chipotle Salsa immediately while it’s hot and fresh.
