Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Prepare the halibut by patting the fillets dry with paper towels. Brush each piece with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, then sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.
Combine 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and half of the minced garlic in a small bowl, and brush the mixture onto the halibut fillets.
Grill the halibut for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the grill and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the remaining minced garlic and sautΓ© for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the julienned carrot, red bell pepper, and snow peas to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
In a small bowl, mix the tamarind paste, soy sauce, honey, and 2 tablespoons of water. Pour the mixture into the skillet and toss to coat the vegetables evenly.
Add the chopped baby bok choy to the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes until wilted. Drizzle with sesame oil and stir well.
Plate the grilled halibut fillets with a generous portion of the tamarind stir-fried vegetables on the side. Garnish with sliced green onion.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Grilled Halibut with Tamarind Stir Fried Vegetables.
