Step

  • 1

    Make the tartar sauce at least an hour ahead of time so that the flavors have time to meld. Tartar Sauce: In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, dill pickles, capers, lemon juice and mustard. Mix. Fold in the herbs and add salt to taste.

  • 2

    When ready to cook, set temperature to High and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes. Lay Halibut fillets on a sheet tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle generously with sea salt, and then use your hands to coat the fillets thoroughly with the olive oil. Let sit for 5 minutes.

  • 3

    Place the fillets directly on the grill grate with the presentation side up. Cook on High until the fish starts to look opaque (about 10 minutes).
