6 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 halibut steaks (meaty, 1/2-inch minimum)
  • 2 teaspoons cajun seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat gas grill to 400 degrees or so with burners on high.
  2. 2
    Place cast iron skillet on grill directly over heat. Close lid of grill.
  3. 3
    Continue to heat until a drop of water sizzles when dropped on skillet (I actually used a drop of beer, just happened to have one in hand when grilling it up, okay who am I kidding, I always have one in hand whenever I'm grilling).
  4. 4
    Use a paper towel to dry each side of the halibut steaks. Dust each side liberally with Cajun seasoning.
  5. 5
    Once the skillet is heated, drop the butter into skillet. Allow to melt, moving skillet to coat evenly. (caution- the skillet will be HOT to the touch, use an oven mit).
  6. 6
    Place halibut steaks in skillet. Close grill lid and let grill 2-2 1/2 minutes. Flip. Let grill another 2-2 1/2 minutes. Fish is done if it flakes easily with a fork.
