Here’s how to make grilled halibut: one of the best ways to cook this fish! With this recipe it comes out perfectly tender and charred.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound halibut
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Smoked salt, for garnish (optional; or flaky sea salt)
  • Lemon wedges, for garnish
  • Chopped herbs (we used basil and chives), for garnish
  • Truffle aioli, for dipping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat a grill to medium-high heat (375 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit). 
  2. Pat halibut filets dry. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with the kosher salt and fresh ground pepper.
  3. Cook directly on grates for 3 to 4 minutes skin side up, until grill marks appear and flesh starts to release from the grates. Flip and continue cooking another 3 to 4 minutes until flaky, or internal temperature reaches 135 degrees Fahrenheit.
  4. Sprinkle with smoked salt and chopped herbs. Squeeze with a lemon wedge directly before serving. If desired, serve with truffle aioli for dipping.
