Ingredients
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 to 3 tablespoons honey, depending how sweet you want it
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 (6-ounce) halibut fillets
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- Whisk the vinegar, honey, oil, and garlic in a bowl. Arrange halibuts in an 8-inch square baking dish. Pour marinade over the fish, coating it completely. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
- Preheat the broiler. Line the bottom and sides of a baking sheet with foil. Spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray. Remove fish from marinade, reserving marinade, and arrange the fillets atop the baking sheet. Pour the marinade into a heavy small saucepan. Broil the fillets until they are just cooked through and caramelized on top, about 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile bring the marinade to a boil and simmer until it thickens slightly and becomes syrupy, whisking often, about 15 minutes. Spoon off any excess oil from the sauce, if desired.
- Transfer the fillets to plates. Spoon the sauce over and around the fillets, and serve.

So Easy and so good! I added fresh ginger to the marinade. The kitchen smells amazing!
Simple and very good!
Wonderful. One of the best fish dishes
This was the best fish yummy yummy!!!!!!! I will serve this tomorrow night too. As usual if Giada comes through with another lovely fish dish. Not to mention very simple to prepare!!!!!!!!!!
I added a small scallion, kept the same garlic amount to this receipe, and cut it back for only two. Served it over Trader Joes’ mushroom risotto! It was awesome, definitely resturant quality. I felt like it was a meal at McCormick and Schmicks!
Very easy recipe and very good taste. I will make it again…
The glaze had a nice flavor, but it did’t pack the punch I was hoping for. I cooked the fish a little too long, so it was kind of dry and a little burned on the edges. Next time I will brush some of the glaze on during cooking to keep moist.
The title says it all. The kids weren’t quite as fond of the balamic sauce.
i made this with chilean sea bass,with a very good balsamic vinegar, boy did my husband and i enjoy it! i’ll make this again and again for sure because it is such no fuss, healthy, and a really good fish dish.
It wasn’t anything special. One of the only recipes of Giada’s that I’ve not been thrilled with.
