Thai-Style Grilled Halibut

 If there’s one quick meal I absolutely can’t resist, it’s grilled fish. Firm fish like salmon and halibut hold up great on the grill and the smoky flavor is so unique and tasty. The Thai marinade used on this fish provides that perfect umami flavor that will have you savoring each bite. Serve over rice (I recommend coconut rice!) or with steamed green beans and enjoy a restaurant-quality meal in no time.

1. Combine marinade ingredients in a small mixing bowl. 

2.  Place halibut filets in a ziploc bag and pour 1/2 the marinade over. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 1 hour. 

3. Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill halibut for 4 minutes per side, brushing with the remaining marinade as you go. 

4. Transfer fish to a serving platter and enjoy!
