Since today is Ash Wednesday, I have decided to make dinner with fish tonight. I'm not a huge fan of fish, unless it's Salmon, but we had a friend of ours give us some Halibut they caught a few months ago. I've never cooked or eaten Halibut, but a lot of others have told me that it taste almost as good as Salmon, so I thought why not give it a try. So, tonight we're having...
Ingredients
Jerk Halibut Steaks with Sweet Potato Wedges
Ingredients
- 2 pound(s) (about 2 large) sweet potatoes
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 jalapeño chile, seeded and chopped
- 2 tablespoon(s) fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoon(s) Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon(s) peeled, grated fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon(s) dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon(s) ground allspice
- 2 tablespoon(s) olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) ground red pepper (cayenne)
- 1/8 teaspoon(s) ground red pepper (cayenne)
- Salt
- 4 piece(s) (about 6 ounces each) halibut steaks, 1-inch thick
Directions
- Lightly grease grill rack. Prepare outdoor grill for covered direct grilling over medium heat.
- Cut each unpeeled sweet potato lengthwise in half. Place sweet potato halves on microwave-safe plate and cook in microwave oven on High 8 minutes or until almost fork-tender, rearranging sweet potatoes halfway through cooking.
- Meanwhile, in medium bowl, combine green onions, jalapeño, lime juice, Worcestershire, ginger, thyme, allspice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add halibut steaks, turning to coat. Let stand 5 minutes.
- Cut each sweet potato half into 4 wedges. In another medium bowl, toss sweet potatoes with 1/4 teaspoon salt, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and 1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper until coated.
- Place halibut and sweet potatoes on hot grill rack. Spoon half of jerk marinade in bowl on halibut; discard remaining marinade. Grill halibut steaks 8 to 10 minutes or until opaque throughout, turning over once. Grill sweet potato wedges 6 to 7 minutes or until tender and lightly charred, turning over once. Transfer to platter as they are done. Garnish with lime wedges.
