Delicious! My husband absolutely loves this recipe! Fish is simply seasoned with lime juice, then served with a cilantro lime garlic sauce. Serve over a bed of greens with a nice loaf of bread for a complete meal.

Ingredients

  • 4 (6 ounce) fillets halibut

  • 1 lime, cut into wedges

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • 3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped

  • ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

  1. Preheat a grill for high heat. Squeeze the juice from the lime wedges over fish fillets, then season them with salt and pepper.

  2. Grill fish fillets for about 5 minutes on each side, until browned and fish can be flaked with a fork. Remove to a warm serving plate.

  3. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic; cook and stir just until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in the butter, remaining lime juice and cilantro. Serve fish with the cilantro butter sauce.
