Our Best Ideas for Halibut

Cooking seafood can feel like a daunting task—but with the right fish, it’s easy. As long as you know how to buy and store your seafood and have a few good recipes on hand, you’ll never have to worry. There are a lot of great options to choose from but we like halibut because it’s tender and mild, known for its subtly sweet flavor—and there are lots of ways to cook it. (Spoiler alert: It’s also one of the easiest fish to grill.) And, did we mention it’s great in everything from curry to fish tacos? If you’re looking for a few recipes to get you started, you’re in the right place. You can’t go wrong with any of the ideas in this roundup but start here, with this dish that screams 'summer'. Juicy heirlooms are a bed for the fish and sweet cherry tomatoes are lightly charred to give the vinaigrette a subtle smoky flavor. Serve with grilled country bread rubbed with garlic, a crunchy salad or buttery corn on the cob for a memorable meal.
