Turn on the broiler and enjoy this light, fresh dish! We love halibut as it pairs perfectly with the creamy avocado butter. Bright, satisfying, and full of good-for-you fats, just be sure to plan ahead for marinating time!
Preparation
STEP 1
Place fish in a shallow dish. In a small bowl, combine oil, soy sauce, lemon juice and zest, garlic and parsley. Pour over fish. Coat both sides and marinate up to 1 hour.
STEP 2
In a small bowl, beat butter until soft. Mix in avocado, lemon juice, parsley and garlic. Season with salt to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
STEP 3
Drain fish, reserving marinade. Either broil in the oven or grill over hot fire, 10-12 minutes per inch of thickness, turning once and brushing often with marinade.
STEP 4
Transfer fish to plates and top each with a dollop of avocado butter. Garnish with lemon wedges, if desired.
