Total Time:
- 35 minutes
Instructions:
1. Let’s go! Preheat your smoker to 350°F and pat the halibut filet dry with a paper towel. Then, combine olive oil and chipotle powder in a bowl which you’ll use to give the filet b-e-a-utiful color and flavor. Brush the mixture onto the halibut and season with salt and pepper.
2. Once the filet is completely coated, insert the probe into the center of the thickest part of the fish, and set up the cook in the app. We recommend the target internal temperature of 129°F for a delicate, tender finish. Once you’re finished with the app, place the filet in the smoker, and let it sit till MEATER notifies you to remove from heat!
3. While that’s smoking, prepare the DELICIOUS salsa. In a bowl, combine red onion, cucumber, kiwi, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, salt and pepper. Mix, mix, mix. Of course taste to test, every great chef tests their creation.
4. Once you remove the halibut from heat, let it rest on a wooden cutting board or resting rack, then serve with the addictive kiwi cucumber salsa. You don’t have to thank us. We know it’s good. 😉
