2 halibut fillets, about 12 oz total (340 g total)
1 lemon
4 tbsp (60 g) unsalted butter, softened
2 tbsp (8 g) fresh parsley, chopped
1 tbsp (4 g) fresh dill, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil

Instructions

1. **Prepare the Lemon Herb Butter**: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter with chopped parsley, dill, and the juice of half a lemon. Mix well and set aside.
2. **Season the Halibut**: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush both sides of the halibut fillets with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
3. **Grill the Halibut**: Place the halibut on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
4. **Serve**: Remove halibut from the grill and top each fillet with a generous dollop of the lemon herb butter. Garnish with lemon slices and additional fresh herbs if desired. Serve immediately.
