Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) halibut fillets
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 whole (zested and juiced) lemon
- 1.5 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups (halved) cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh basil
- 1 teaspoon honey
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F).
Pat the halibut fillets dry with paper towels and brush both sides with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Season the fillets evenly with 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and lemon zest.
In a medium bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, 1 tablespoon olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and honey. Mix well and let sit while preparing the halibut to allow the flavors to meld.
Lightly grease the grill grates with oil to prevent sticking. Place the halibut fillets on the grill, skin-side down if applicable.
Grill the halibut for 3-4 minutes on the first side, then carefully flip and grill for another 3-4 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the halibut from the grill and set aside to rest for 2 minutes.
Finish the tomato vinaigrette by stirring in the chopped fresh basil and lemon juice.
To serve, spoon the tomato vinaigrette generously over each halibut fillet. Optionally, garnish with additional chopped basil for presentation.
