Grilled Halibut with Chimichurri

This grilled halibut with chimichurri represents a fresh and vibrant approach to seafood. The meaty, firm texture of the halibut provides the perfect canvas for the zesty, herb-forward sauce. Traditionally associated with grilled meats, this chimichurri uses flat-leaf parsley, lemon juice, and a hint of chilli to cut through the richness of the fish. It is an excellent choice for a light summer dinner when you want maximum flavour with minimal fuss.

As a diabetes-friendly main course, this dish is naturally low in carbohydrates and rich in heart-healthy fats from the extra-virgin olive oil. The high protein content makes it incredibly satisfying, especially when served alongside grilled courgettes or a crisp green salad. Whether you are cooking over charcoal for a smoky finish or using a griddle pan indoors, it is a sophisticated yet simple way to enjoy sustainable white fish.
