We have had this recipe quite a bit and it's always a hit! We have made it both on the grill and in the oven, in a pan or wrapped in foil packets and it's never failed! It's a go to when we have company. I usually make a little extra sauce if we don't cook it in foil packets for dipping! When we make it in foil packets I wrap them individually, each person gets their own packet (and their own dipping sauce). When I bake it, depending on the thickness of the filets, I bake about 20-25 minutes.
It's quick and easy! Halibut can be pricey but we are fortunate enough to have a freezer stocked of fresh caught halibut from the summer! We have also used Salmon and rockfish instead and it's just as tasty!
So here's the recipe...
Ingredients:
- 1 pound halibut steaks
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
Combine
all ingredients, except the halibut, in a small saucepan over a medium
heat. Mix until sugar is dissolved. Preheat grill. Place halibut steaks
on grill and cook on each side for about 5 minutes basting with sauce.
Grill until done. Halibut should be opaque through to the middle and
flake easily with a fork.
