Ingredients
- 4 pieces halibut fillets
- 2 cups strawberries
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 piece jalapeño pepper
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Pat the halibut fillets dry with a paper towel. Season both sides of the fillets with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Step 3
Lightly brush the halibut with 1 tablespoon of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Step 4
Place the halibut fillets on the hot grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is opaque. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 5
While the fish is cooking, prepare the strawberry salsa: hull and dice the strawberries into small cubes. Finely chop the red onion and cilantro. Mince the jalapeño pepper, removing the seeds if you prefer less heat.
Step 6
In a medium bowl, combine the diced strawberries, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño. Add the lime juice, remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined and taste to adjust seasoning if necessary.
Step 7
Transfer the cooked halibut fillets to serving plates. Spoon the strawberry salsa generously over each fillet.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh and vibrant Halibut with Strawberry Salsa!
