This elegant halibut with courgette salsa verde is a vibrant, light dish that brings a burst of fresh flavour to your table. The delicate white fish provides a lean source of protein, while the salsa—made with zesty lime, coriander, and mild jalapeño—offers a refreshing alternative to traditional heavy sauces. Using courgette as the base for the salsa adds a lovely creamy texture and subtle sweetness that perfectly complements the spiced rub on the grilled fish fillets.
As a diabetes-friendly main course, this recipe is naturally low in carbohydrates and rich in heart-healthy nutrients. It is an ideal choice for a quick midweek supper or a sophisticated dinner party main. For a complete and balanced meal, serve the fillets alongside a portion of steamed green beans or a crisp garden salad to keep the flavours bright and the preparation simple.
