GRILLED HALIBUT WITH INDIAN SPICES AND CORN RELISH
Here, a fragrant combination of ground cumin, turmeric, coriander and fennel seed is rubbed all over fresh halibut steaks (Pacific salmon, wild striped bass and hake also work well here). The steaks are then left to marinate for a few hours in the refrigerator before grilling. The cooked fish is topped with a quick relish made of fresh corn, ginger, onion, cilantro and a bit of the spice mixture that's been sautéed in clarified butter. It's an unexpected yet extraordinary way to prepare fish that might just win over the self-proclaimed seafood-haters at the table.

Steps:
- Combine cumin, turmeric, coriander, fennel, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste. Rub fish steaks on both sides with juice of 1/2 lemon, then rub with all but 2 teaspoons of spice mixture. Refrigerate 3 hours.
- While fish marinates, heat 2 tablespoons ghee in a skillet, add ginger and onion and sauté until onion just starts to brown. Stir in remaining spices and sauté, stirring, until spices smell toasty, then add corn and juice of 1/2 lemon. Cook briefly and set aside.
- Remove fish from refrigerator and brush on both sides with remaining ghee or butter. Heat grill and oil grates. When hot, place fish on grill over medium-hot coals or gas fire and cook about 5 minutes. Use a spatula to turn fish and grill 3 to 4 minutes, until a little liquid just begins to pool on surface of fish and a paring knife inserted just at the bone can move flesh away from it easily. Salmon should be cooked about 3 minutes on each side. Remove fish to a warm platter or individual plates.
- Reheat corn mixture, adding cilantro and a couple tablespoons water to moisten it. Spoon corn on fish, garnish with wedges cut from remaining lemon and serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right halibut: Look for firm, opaque flesh with a mild, slightly sweet flavor. Avoid fish that is slimy or has a fishy odor.
- Make sure your grill is hot: The best way to cook halibut is over a hot grill. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside while keeping the inside moist and flaky.
- Don't overcook the halibut: Halibut is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked. Cook it until it is just cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Use a good spice rub: A spice rub can help to add flavor and depth to the halibut. The recipe in this article uses a Lebanese spice rub that is made with a variety of spices, including cumin, coriander, and paprika.
- Serve the halibut with a flavorful sauce: A simple lemon-butter sauce or a tahini sauce can help to complement the flavor of the halibut.
Conclusion:
Grilled halibut is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. By following these tips, you can cook halibut that is perfectly cooked and full of flavor. So fire up your grill and give this recipe a try!
