Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, combine 1/4 cup of orange marmalade, 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard, and 1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Whisk the ingredients together until smooth and well-blended. Fold in 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh basil and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
  2. Take two halibut fillets and place them on a large plate. Coat each fillet with the prepared orange Dijon glaze on both sides. Allow to marinate at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F) and ensure the grates are clean and lightly oiled.
  4. Place the marinated halibut fillets on the grill grates. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then gently flip and grill for another 4-5 minutes until done.
  5. Remove the halibut from the grill, brush on any remaining glaze, and serve immediately.
