Absolutely delicious! Start to marinate the fish at least two
hours before you plan to serve it.
Preparation facts
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbs (15mL) olive oil
1/4 cup (25g) basil, fresh, chopped
1 tsp (6g) salt (sea salt if on a corn-free diet*)
1 tsp (4g) pepper
1/4 cup (60mL) fresh lime juice
1 1/2 lbs (680g) halibut fillets, or steaks
Directions
Combine all ingredients except for fish in a shallow dish large enough
to hold the halibut.
Place fish in the dish and marinate for at least two hours, turning
once or twice.
Remove fish from marinade and broil or grill for about 5 minutes on
each side (10 minutes total per inch (2.5cm) of thickness). Transfer fish to a serving
dish.
Heat remaining marinade in the microwave for one minute; then pour over
fish. Serve while hot.
Serve with rice or couscous.
* Allergy notes: People following a corn-free diet should avoid iodized
salt since it contains dextrose, which should be avoided by those allergic to corn.
