How to Make Spicy Mango Halibut

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon peanut oil in a wok or large pan over medium heat. Add 1-2 jalapeños, thinly sliced, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
  2. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook for another 2 minutes, until translucent.
  3. Stir in 2 ripe mangos, diced, and 1/4 cup chopped cilantro. Cook for 3-5 minutes, until the mangos soften slightly and change from bright yellow to a duller yellow. Do not overcook.
  4. Season with 1 teaspoon curry powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Set the mango chutney aside.
  6. In the same pan, heat 1 tablespoon peanut oil over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  7. Add 2 (6-ounce) halibut steaks and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the halibut is about 80% cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  8. Pour the mango chutney over the halibut, ensuring it's fully coated. Cover the pan and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the halibut is cooked through.
