Instructions

• Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat (180°C to 230°C) on one side and high heat (230°C to 290°C) on the other side.
• Brush the cooking grates clean. In a 30 centimetre cast-iron skillet over direct medium heat, warm the oil. Add the onion and cook until it softens and begins to brown, about 5 minutes, stirring often. Add the garlic, ginger, coriander, paprika, turmeric, salt and cayenne. Mix well and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring often to avoid burning. Add the tomatoes and coconut milk. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed. Allow to cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, while you prepare the halibut.

• Grill the fillets over direct high heat, with the lid closed, until they release easily from the cooking grate, 4 to 5 minutes (do not turn). Using a wide spatula, transfer each fillet to the pan with the sauce so that the grilled side is facing up. Nestle the fillets into the sauce, close the lid, let the fillets cook over direct medium heat until they just begin to flake when you poke them with the tip of a knife, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the grill. Scatter basil on top, if desired. Serve warm.
