How to Make Halibut A La Tunisia

  1. **Prepare the Herb Paste:** In a small bowl, thoroughly combine olive oil, minced garlic, cilantro, parsley, cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
  2. **Marinate the Halibut:** Spread the herb paste evenly over both sides of each halibut fillet. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (longer is better!).
  3. **Preheat Your Grill:** Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  4. **Grill the Halibut:** Place the marinated halibut fillets on the preheated grill. Grill for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the halibut is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. (Cooking time will depend on the thickness of your fillets).
  5. **Finish and Serve:** Remove the halibut from the grill. Drizzle each fillet with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Serve immediately and enjoy!
