Steamed Orange Halibut is a great low-calorie option that is an excellent source of protein to add to your dinner menu. Steaming the fish with Florida Orange Juice is a healthier alternative to frying and adds great flavor. Halibut is also a prime source of omega-3 fatty acids, which is an essential nutrient.

Cook Time
12 minTotal Time
22 minIngredients
- 3 cups Florida Orange Juice
- ⅓ cup lime juice
- 1 tbsp. ground ginger
- 4 halibut fillets, boneless and skinless, 4 oz. each
- 1 tbsp. cornstarch
- 2 tsp. minced fresh ginger
- Asian chili oil (optional)
- Thin shreds of lime peel
Instructions
- In the bottom of an 11 to 12-inch-wide steamer, combine the Florida Orange Juice, lime juice, and ground ginger.
- Cover the pot and bring the Florida Orange Juice mixture to a boil over high heat.
- Rinse the fish and set the pieces slightly apart on the rack over boiling liquids. Cover the pan and reduce to medium heat.
- Steam until the fish is barely opaque but still moist-looking in the center of the thickest part (cut to test), about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Lift out the rack.
- With a wide spatula, lift the fish from the rack and set on a plate. Cover to keep warm.
- Increase heat to high and boil the pan juices, uncovered, until reduced to about 1 ½ cups, about 10 to 12 minutes.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 3 tablespoons of water.
- Add the cornstarch mixture, along with the fresh ginger, to the reduced pan juices. Stir until boiling.
- Place the fish on the serving platter and pour the sauce over the fish. Garnish each portion with a few drops of chili oil and shreds of lime peel.
