Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound halibut fillet, skin-on
- 1/3 cup orange marmalade
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons apple juice
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil, finely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the orange marmalade, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, apple juice, chopped basil, and red pepper flakes until smooth.
- Preheat the grill: Preheat your outdoor grill to medium-high heat and clean the grates thoroughly.
- Season the halibut: Lightly season the halibut fillet with salt and black pepper on both sides.
- Place the halibut on the grill, skin-side down.
- Glaze the halibut: Brush the top of the fillet generously with half of the prepared glaze.
