Grilled halibut is a very mild, buttery fish, and it’s extremely easy to cook on a cedar plank. You simply season the filets with olive oil, salt and pepper and slide a pre-soaked plank on the grill. Better yet, try this recipe from Christie Vanover of Girls Can Grill. She tops her halibut filets with toasted macadamia nuts and garlic breadcrumbs with a touch of citrus, taking halibut to a restaurant quality level.
