GRILLED HALIBUT WITH PINEAPPLE CHIPOTLE SALSA



Grilled Halibut With Pineapple Chipotle Salsa image

Halibut is a low fat, very mild flavored fish with a firm flaky meat. It is easily available year round, relatively inexpensive, easy to grill and lends itself to almost any flavor. I found this recipe in the local Living Magazine & was intrigued by the salsa. I'm sure it would be wonderful with any mild fish such as grouper, flounder or snapper.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest halibut you can find. Look for fish that is firm to the touch and has a mild, sweet smell. Avoid fish that is slimy or has a strong odor.
  • Poach the halibut gently. Bring the poaching liquid to a simmer before adding the fish. Do not boil the liquid, as this will overcook the fish.
  • Make sure the poaching liquid is flavorful. Use a combination of water, white wine, and herbs to create a flavorful poaching liquid.
  • Don't overcook the halibut. Cook the fish until it is just opaque in the center. Overcooked halibut will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the halibut immediately. Halibut is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can also chill the fish and serve it cold.

Conclusion:

Poached halibut is a delicious and healthy seafood dish that is easy to prepare. This recipe for poached halibut with chunky pineapple salsa is a great way to enjoy this versatile fish. The salsa adds a bright and flavorful twist to the classic poached halibut dish. This dish is perfect for a light lunch or dinner.
