halibut Olympia and side of fresh asparagus and corn.
really all you do is smear a gob of mayo over the top and add some spices
mom's gone or I'd ask her
it's become my favorite way to eat salmon too!

Quick and easy: Cut halibut into chunks and dip in ranch dressing and then roll in crushed Ritz crackers. Another variation is to dip the halibut chunks in garlic butter and roll in crushed potato chips. Either way, bake the chunks hot and fast, 500-degrees for 10min.
We grill and broil a fair amount, as well. In either case, a little olive oil on the fillets before hand helps keep the fish moist. One of my favorite seasonings is Zatarains Creole seasoning, sprinkle generously. Some seasoned breadcrumbs are a nice addition, as well.
More involved: Slice the fillets in half or thirds to reduce thickness; they should be about 1/4 - 3/8" thick. Smear with a mixture of cream cheese and chopped green onions and roll them up. Wrap with partially cooked bacon slices (microwave for a few minutes, they should be rubbery) and hold the bacon in place with toothpicks. Bake at 350-degrees for about 20-30min, until the bacon is crispy.
I also substitute halibut chunks for shrimp and crawfish tails. It works really well in etoufee.
Thoroughly enjoying Alaska since 2001.

I like to roll it up in a foil packet with a great gob of butter, lots of garlic, some black pepper, and a couple lemon slices. I slice up some onions and put in as well. Slap it in the oven at about 350 for a while, usually I listen to hear the butter sizzling and if it is the fish is done, don't have to worry too much about over cooking it with the butter.
Me and the Mrs eat lingcod and rockfish this way as well as pike and the occasional salmon. Pretty easy and pretty good.

Rub on olive oil, salt, lemon, and pepper. Grill over read charcoal in a grill basket. Do Not Overcook. For the last five minutes throw a handful of fresh thyme on the coals and cover the grill. Let the smoke build up. Grilled asparagus goes well with it.

Cut into small (1"ish) pieces, let dry a bit. Dip in oil then roll in fine crushed crackers and sprinkle with fine grated sharp cheddar cheese. Bake at 500 for around 10 min.

Parmesan encrusted halibut is hard to beat. This, in a baking pan, lined with aluminum foil, baked in my toaster oven. Grated Parmesan, a little evaporated milk, garlic, salt, pepper.

Getting a bunch of limes, sweet onions, jalape�os, green chiles,fresh tomatoes, and avacado together and making halibut ceviche is never a bad idea either. I can sit with a bowl of this stuff and a giant sack of tortilla chips along with a cold beer and eat until I founder. Wife had never heard of ceviche and thought it was gross when I explained it to her, until I forced her to try it, now it gets requested all the time.

Sprinkle a mixture of Seasonal, Pepper, Powdered Garlic, Dill and Tarragon over Halibut followed by a Butter Patti, thin sliced lemon and onion. Liberally sprinkle either a good blush or white wine over halibut cover casserole and poach in an oven until done or about ten minutes per pound.
Do not over cook, cook until halibut starts to flake. This recipe works well with salmon and/or any white fish.

Put a 50-50 mix of sour cream/mayo on fillets. Cover with cheddar cheese. Bake. Pretty good.
Enchiladas are good.
I eat hali about 2x a week. Momma mixes up the recipes a bunch, but the above are my favorites.

Shag; Good afternoon to you sir, I hope this finds you well and that you've found some good halibut recipes so far.
So last summer I did some work on a good friend's rifle and in return he brought us back a cooler full of Alaskan halibut and salmon chunks.
Our family loved the change to halibut which is a rarity for us here - salmon we can get locally now and is easier to find in the grocery stores too.
Anyway after experimenting with a couple different methods of cooking halibut, this turned out to be our family favorite.
In a mixing bowl we mix: - 2�tbs grated Parmesan - 3tbs mayo - low fat or not didn't matter - 3tbs lemon juice - 3tbs chopped green onion - pinch of salt to taste
The original recipe called for � cup of soft butter too, but that was too rich for us somehow.
Put the chunk of fish into a baking dish that's been greased and preheat the oven to 420�.
If the chunk isn't too big, then 20 minutes will work fine, but larger pieces stayed in for a half hour.
Cover the dish for the first half of the baking and then cook uncovered for the second half to brown it a bit. One could vary that too if you like it more browned, etc.
Anyway sir, hopefully that was useful for you or someone out there tonight. All the best to you this fall and good luck on your remaining hunts this fall.

Parmesan encrusted halibut is hard to beat. Yup! Add in some panko bread crumbs. In fact, I make up a mixture of slightly melted butter, panko and parm cheese, Coat the fish and top with very thin key lime slices before baking. Crushed pistachios also make a great coating.
