Southwest Halibut with Corn Tomato Salsa was a huge hit and wonderful change up from eating salmon most weeks😂. Tim loves his salmon, and so do I! However I’m a fan of rotating all my food groups🤣🙌
Halibut can get dry and over cooked. NOT SO, if you follow my step by step easy method for cooking fish perfectly moist flaky and juicy! You’ll find this dish a delicious addition into your wild fish repertoire
