Halibut is one of the best fishes to throw on the grill. Its mild, sweet flavor and its firm flesh make it a perfect candidate for grilling because it takes on char really well and it won't fall apart while cooking.
You could serve it simply with a squeeze of lemon but we went the extra mile and added a tropical mango salsa. It adds a brightness and acidity that makes this a perfect summer dinner main.
A few tips when grilling fish: Always make sure your grill is hot before adding the fish. If you add the fish when the grill is too cold the fish will stick to the grates instead of releasing cleanly. Make sure to oil the fish on both sides as well. A nice olive oil will had some flavor to your fish, but also keep it from sticking to the grill.
If you have leftovers, we recommend storing the salsa and fish separately in airtight containers. It will keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
