Serving Sizes

An average serving size of halibut fillet would be one half pound. This would apply to both a fillet entree or other cooking methods such as battered halibut. Halibut steaks are usually served on a one per person basis, but at times, can be quite large and need to be split in two.

Halibut fillets and steaks can be thawed under refrigeration about 12 hours before preparation. The vacuum-sealed packages can also be ran under cold water to speed this up considerably.

Our halibut fillets and steaks are fresh-frozen and individually vacuum-sealed in 1/2 to 1 1/2 pound packages. The fillets are boneless.
