Rockfish is a tasty and sustainable seafood option for summer dining. Stovetop grilling provides a quick preparation method, and adding a mango salsa topping really makes the flavor meter jump.
We’ll add some black bean and roasted corn quinoa along with sliced avocado and tomato to the plate.

Grilled Halibut with Poke Sauce, Lemon Scallion Rice and Bok Choy: Wednesday, June 11, 2025
One of the easiest ways to prepare fish is on the grill. It can be done on an outdoor grill (using a wire basket if necessary) or on an oiled stovetop grill. Tonight it’ll be finished with poke sauce (pronounced po-kay). It’s perfectly acceptable to use frozen fish for this meal. Be sure to set it in the fridge to thaw in the morning. Baby Bok Choy is available in the supermarkets so enjoy this versatile vegetable tonight. Delicate lemon/scallion rice finishes the plate.
