Chef Tips: To prevent halibut from sticking to the grill, make sure the grill grates are well oiled and hot before placing it on the grill.
Halibut can also be grilled on the stove top on a grill pan over medium-high heat.
Other firm, white-fleshed fish such as cod, haddock or mahi mahi would also work well in this dish.
