HALIBUT WITH BALSAMIC GLAZE
So easy, great presentation and twist to fish. I've used other 3/4"-1" thick fish and recommend marinating the full 4 hours if possible. Recipe courtesy of Giada, Everyday Italian.

Steps:
- In a small bowl whisk the vinegar, honey, oil, and garlic.
- Arrange fish in an 8" sq baking dish and pour marinate over, coating completely.
- Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
- Preheat broiler.
- Line the bottom and sides of a baking sheet with foil. Spray the foil with nonstick oil.
- Remove fish, reserving the marinade, and arrange on baking sheet.
- Pour marinade into a small heavy saucepan and bring to a boil and then back to a simmer for about 15 mins., stirring often.
- While sauce is simmering, broil the fish until they are just cooked through and carmelized on top, about 12 minutes (Watch last few minutes that you're not too close to the broiler and fish is burning).
- In small pan, sauce will thicken similar to a steak sauce. Spoon off any excess oil if preferred.
- Transfer fillets to plates, drizzle sauce lightly on top just for presentation to keep the eye appeal of the carmelization and then spoon more sauce around the fish. Serve.
BALSAMIC GLAZE
This glaze is a must-have accompaniment to drizzle over fish, poultry, vegetables, pastas, salads, and even fruit. It can turn any dish from ordinary to extraordinary with its perfectly balanced, intense flavor of sweet and tangy. It adds a beautiful, deep pop of color to any dish to create a perfect, professional presentation. I make a large batch and have it on hand in the fridge at all times. Once you start adding this glaze to dishes you will become addicted and crave its intense flavor.

BALSAMIC-GLAZED HALIBUT
This recipe is from a low fat cooking site. The original recipe calls from Dijon mustard and broiling the fish. I used a coarse ground mustard and grilled the fillets outside.
