FAST & SPICY ALASKA HALIBUT

Prep Time: 5 minutes   Cook Time: 15 minutes   Servings: 4

1 Tablespoon paprika
1-1/2 teaspoons each dried oregano and dried thyme
1 teaspoon each onion powder and garlic powder
1 teaspoon each black pepper and salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
4 Alaska Halibut steaks or fillets (4 to 6 oz. each), fresh, thawed or frozen
1-1/2 Tablespoons butter, melted

Preheat broiler/oven or grill to medium-high heat.

Mix together all dry seasoning ingredients until well combined.

Rinse any ice glaze from frozen Alaska Halibut under cold water; pat dry with paper towel. Place halibut on a spray-coated or foil-lined baking sheet. Brush butter onto top surfaces of halibut and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon seasoning mixture. (Note: For best results with frozen fish, cook halibut 4 minutes before adding butter and spices.)

Grill or broil halibut 5-7 inches from heat for 13 minutes for frozen halibut OR 8 minutes for fresh/thawed fish. Cook just until fish is opaque throughout.

Store remaining seasoning mixture in an airtight container for future use.
