Grilled Fish Fillets or Steaks image

Fish steaks are relatively foolproof - they're practically designed for grilling. It always helps to make sure the grill is clean and well oiled just before you put the fish on. Just hold some paper towels in tongs and dip them in a small bowl of oil, then rub on the grates.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

About 1 1/2 pounds thick halibut fillets or steaks
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Steps:

  • Heat a charcoal or gas grill until quite hot, and put the rack 3 or 4 inches from the heat source. Drizzle the flesh of the fish with olive oil, and sprinkle it with salt and pepper.
  • When the fire is ready, grill the fish for about 5 minutes, or until it's firm enough to turn. Turn, and grill until done, usually another 3 to 5 minutes. When done, the fish will still be firm and juicy but opaque, and a thin-bladed knife will pass through it fairly easily. Serve with tomato salsa.
