Ingredients:

  • 1-1/2 lbs. halibut steak
  • 1 tsp. chopped fresh thyme leaves

Preparation:

Prepare and preheat grill. Cut green beans in half and bring to boil in 1 cup water. Simmer for 5 minutes until almost tender; drain beans. Cut fish into 6 equal portions and place on heavy cuty aluminum foil. Sprinkle fish with thyme, salt and pepper and divide sliced onions and green beans on fish.
