Ingredients
- 4 halibut fillets cut to 1/2" thickness skin removed
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 1 Tbsp lime juice
- Salt & pepper
Instructions
- Heat the grill to medium. We like to use a cast iron skillet on the stove top but this can also be done on the BBQ with a well seasoned grill or on a George Forman grill. Melt the butter in the skillet and allow to slightly brown.
- Season both sides of the fish with salt and pepper and place on the hot grill.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side. Sprinkle with lime juice before removing from the pan.

Notes
- This recipe can also be made with halibut steaks. The cooking time may change, so use a meat thermometer if you are unsure.
- I like to pat my fillets dry with some paper towel before getting started.
- Feel free to add other seasonings according to your tastes, like garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or cumin. Fresh parsley or cilantro would be delicious too.
- Instead of lime juice, use lemon juice and serve with extra lemon wedges on the side.
