• caramelized on both sides. Cool slightly and cut into 1/2-inch pieces; place in mixing bowl.
• In separate bowl, combine chipotles, lime juice, zest and orange juice. Whisk in olive oil vigorously. Pour over pineapple chunks, fold in
• green onions, red peppers, cilantro and raisins. Season with sea salt, to taste; set aside.
• Rinse any ice glaze from frozen Alaska Halibut under cold water; pat dry with paper towel. Brush halibut and grill surface with oil; grill
• 5 to 7 inches from heat for 13 minutes for frozen halibut or 8 minutes for fresh/thawed fish, turning once during cooking. Cook just until
• fish is opaque throughout. Season with lemon pepper and serve with salsa.

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH PINEAPPLE LIME SALSA

Steps:

• To make the salsa: mix together all the salsa ingredients; may chill or keep at room temperature.
• To make the halibut: mix together the vegetable oil and minced garlic; brush mixture over the fish steaks.
• Sprinkle fish with 1/4 teaspoon salt (or season to taste with salt).
• Coat a grill rack with non-stick cooking spray.
• Put the fish on the grill rack; grill, covered, over medium-hot coals for 5-6 minutes or until the fish flakes; turn fish once during grilling time.
• Place fish steaks on individual plates; spoon pineapple-lime salsa over the fish.

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH TOMATO-BASIL SALSA

Steps:

• In a non-reactive bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper.
• Add the tomatoes and basil, stirring gently to combine. Set aside while you cook the fish.
• Preheat your grill to medium high.
• If your fish has skin on it, season the flesh side with salt and pepper. If it has no skin, place the fish on a folded piece of aluminum foil, large enough to hold the fish in one flat layer, coated with cooking spray. Season with salt and pepper.
• Place the fish on the grill, skin/foil side down. Cook until the fish flakes with a fork, or is barely opaque in the middle. It should still look a little wet in the center.
• Remove the flesh from the skin (I just leave the skin on the grill and burn it off) or the foil, and place on a serving platter. Stir the salsa, then drizzle over the fish. Serve immediately.

PINEAPPLE CHIPOTLE SALSA

GRILLED HALIBUT WITH PINEAPPLE CHIPOTLE SALSA

• Brush halibut heavily with oil & grill just until fish is opaque throughout, gently turning once. The grilling time on halibut is pretty short so keep a close eye on it to avoid over cooking. *** A 1-inch halibut steak will grill up in about 10 minutes over a medium high heat. Thinner cuts and fillets can cook in as little time as 6 minutes.
• Serve topped with salsa.
