Let’s begin by gathering our ingredients for our recipe of the week:
2 pounds halibut
2 limes
salt and pepper
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 cups chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon lime juice
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
Cut limes into wedges. Squeeze over halibut fillets. Season halibut fillets with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in pan over medium heat. Add 3 cloves minced garlic. Cook and stir until fragrant. Add 3 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon lime juice. Add 2 cups chopped fresh cilantro.
Heat grill to medium heat. Place halibut on grill. Flip halibut when cooked halfway through. One side should take less than 5 minutes. If desired, continue to squeeze lime juice over halibut while it cooks. Halibut is cooked when it begins to flake and is white throughout. Evenly spread garlic cilantro butter over cooked halibut.
Plate to serve. Enjoy!
