Grilled Halibut with Garlic Cilantro Sauce

Ingredients

• Halibut filets or steaks, 1 per person
• 4 cloves garlic, finely minced
• 1 cup chicken stock
• 2 tsp. lime zest
• Juice of 2 limes
• 4 T olive oil
• 3 T very finely chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

1. Warm a small splash of olive oil and cook the garlic in it for 2 minutes.
2. Pour in the chicken stock, add the lime zest, and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, until the stock has reduced a little.
3. Stir in the lime juice and olive oil, then let the sauce heat through for 2-3 minutes.
4. Add the cilantro and keep it on the heat for 1 minute more.
5. Brush the fish with sauce on both sides, then let it marinate for 15 minutes while you heat a gas or charcoal grill to high heat. For fish, I like to coat the grill with nonstick spray before turning on the heat.
6. Grill the fish until it feels firm but not hard when you press it, about 5 minutes per side.
7. For pretty grill marks, place the fish diagonally across the grill slats, then pivot it after about 3 minutes of cooking on the first side.
8. Serve the fish hot, with more sauce spooned over each piece.
