Grilled Haddock with Lime & Caper Butter
This Grilled Haddock with Lime & Caper Butter is a light and flavorful seafood dish that’s easy to make and perfect for spring and summer. Tender fish is topped with a savory, citrusy sauce. If you’ve never tasted haddock, it most compares to cod. It’s a hearty-yet-light fish that I find to be a bit sweeter and more flavorful. It pairs so well with a side of grilled green beans and a spoonful of salty-citrus goodness from the Caper & Lime Butter.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Preheat outdoor grill to 475 degrees F.
- Step 2
While grill is heating, slice 2 limes into ¼-inch rounds. You will need about 3 slices per haddock portion.
- Step 3
In a small cast iron pot, add butter (or ghee), juice of 2 limes, garlic clove, capers and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Use salt and pepper grinders to add in about 1 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt and ½ teaspoon cracked black pepper.
- Step 4
Once grill is heated, add cast iron pot to the grates to melt the butter and bring sauce to a simmer.
- Step 5
Add lime slices directly to the grill grate, creating a bed for the haddock. Place the haddock skin-side down onto the lime slices, brush the tops with Caper & Lime Butter and season generously with more Himalayan pink salt and cracked black pepper.
- Step 6
Close the grill lid and let cook for 10 minutes, undisturbed, until fish reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. Use a spatula to carefully remove the fish.
- Step 7
Spoon Caper & Lime Butter onto each filet and serve.
