Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 ounces each) Halibut fillets
• 2 tablespoons Fresh ginger, finely grated
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 4 pieces Lime wedges

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together the grated ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, rice vinegar, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the halibut fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Let the fish marinate for 10 minutes while you prep other ingredients.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Carefully place the marinated halibut fillets into the skillet, reserving any excess marinade. Cook for 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown.

Step 5

Flip the fillets and pour the reserved marinade into the skillet. Continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 6

Remove the halibut from the skillet and transfer to a serving platter. Spoon the remaining pan sauce over the fillets.

Step 7

Garnish with thinly sliced green onions and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an added citrusy kick.
