Sweet and Sour Halibut Recipe

Serves 4

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp rice or cider vinegar
  • 3 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 3/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 4 halibut steaks
  • 1 red bell pepper, halved and seeded
  • 1 green bell pepper, halved and seeded
  • 2 scallions, cut into 2-inch, julienne strips

    • Instructions:

    1. Preheat the grill to medium heat.
    2. When ready to cook, spray the rack, off of the grill, with nonstick cooking spray.
    3. In a nonaluminum pan or large shallow bowl, combine the brown sugar, 1/4 cup water, the vinegar, ketchup, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger.
    4. Measure out 1/4 cup of the mixture and set aside.
    5. Add the halibut to the mixture remaining in the pan, turning to coat.
    6. Grill the bell pepper halves, cut-sides up, for 5 minutes, or until the skin is blackened.
    7. When cool enough to handle, peel the peppers and cut them into thin strips.
    8. Grill the halibut, uncovered, turning once, for 5 minutes or until the halibut is just opaque.
    9. Place the halibut on 4 plates, top with the reserved brown sugar mixture, the bell pepper strips and the scallions, and serve.
