Steps:
- Heat grill to medium.
- In a small bowl, whisk the lemon juice with ½ cup olive; add thyme, salt and pepper.
- Brush both sides of fillets generously with lemon mixture and place each in a banana leaf.
- Place 4 lemon slices and a sprig of thyme on each fillet.
- With the short side of the leaf facing you, fold bottom edge over fish; fold sides over fish, then fold package away from you to envelop the fish.
- Secure each packet with 3 wet toothpicks or tie like a girtbox with a wet piece of string.
- Cook the fish packets on grill, about 6 minutes per side ( the leaves will brown, which is OK).
- While the fish grills, sauté garlic in 1 Tbs olive oil over medium-high heat about 1 minute.
- Add the onions through tomatoes and sauté about 5 minutes until vegetables are tender; season with salt and pepper.
- To serve, put a fish packet in the center of each plate, open the leaf and spoon vegetables around fillet.

YUCATAN MARINATED HALIBUT GRILLED IN BANANA LEAVES WITH ORANGE-PINEAPPLE RELISH
Steps:
- Heat grill to high. Whisk together juices, oil, and chili powders in a medium baking dish. Add the halibut and turn to coat. Marinate for 5 minutes.
- Remove the banana leaves from the water and shake off excess water. Place the leaves on a flat surface. Remove the halibut from the marinade, season with salt and pepper, and place 1 fillet in the center of each leaf. Wrap the banana leaf loosely around each fillet. Place the packets flat on the grill, close the cover, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until just cooked through. Carefully remove from the grill and serve the fish in the banana leaf, if desired. Serve fish with the Orange-Pineapple Relish.
- Whisk together the lime juice, orange juice, chile de arbol, honey, and oil in a medium bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving.
