Simple methods for halibut steaks or filets:

Put halibut (the yummiest of fish) on a big sheet of foil, dot with some butter, a sprinkle of salt, some fresh ground pepper and (optional) a couple of slices of lemon. Fold the foil up around the sides, roll the top edges til sealed, poke one SMALL hole in the top-most part for some steam to escape, bake at preheated 350F (about 10 minutes the pound).

Season the same way as above, leave off the lemon slices, put on a nice lightly oiled cookie sheet or broiling pan, broil (turn once, watch for meat pulling away from centre bone slightly or, if filet, starting to flake or go opaque). Serve with a squeeze of lemon.

Dill, Old Bay seasoning, Aoili (garlic mayonnaise): go well with halibut.

Enjoy.
