Ingredients

  • 2 medium avocados
  • 1 cup diced pineapple
  • 2 medium tomatoes
  • 1 medium jalapeño pepper
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 medium lime
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 4 halibut filets
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
Simple halibut is treated with a creamy, sweet and spicy Pineapple Avocado Salsa for a flavorful and beautiful contrast to its mild taste. Bromelain, the mixture of enzymes present in pineapple, make it a strong anti-inflammatory food so don’t skip the pineapple salsa in this dish! Serve this dinner with a vegetable side of your choice and either rice or quinoa for a well-rounded, satisfying meal.

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the avocado, pineapple, tomatoes, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cayenne pepper. Place in the refrigerator while the halibut cooks.
  2. Season the halibut with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper.
  3. Place 1 cup water in the inner pot of the Instant Pot® and place the steam rack inside. Place the halibut on top of the steam rack. Secure the lid.
  4. Press the Manual or Pressure Cook button and adjust the time to 3 minutes.
  5. When the timer beeps, let pressure release naturally until float valve drops and then unlock lid.
  6. Transfer the halibut filets to plates and top each filet with a portion of the Pineapple Avocado Salsa.
