Slaw:
2 teaspoons peeled, finely grated fresh ginger
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
2 Tablespoons mirin
1 Tablespoon lite soy sauce
1 package (12 oz.) broccoli coleslaw (with broccoli, carrots and red cabbage)

Steps:

Slaw: In a large bowl whisk together ginger, lime juice, sugar, mirin and soy sauce until sugar dissolves. Add the broccoli coleslaw, grapes, cucumber, orange sections, mint and peanuts just before serving; toss gently. Halibut: Heat oven to 400ºF. In small bowl whisk together miso, mirin, soy sauce, brown sugar and ginger until well blended; set aside. Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Rinse any ice glaze from frozen Alaska Halibut under cold water; pat dry with paper towel. Brush both sides of halibut with oil. Place halibut in heated skillet and cook, uncovered, about 4 minutes, until browned. Turn halibut over and sear the other side, about 2 minutes. Transfer skillet to the oven; bake fish 5 minutes then brush with miso glaze. Bake an additional 6 to 9 minutes for frozen halibut or 2 to 5 minutes for fresh/thawed fish. Cook just until fish is opaque throughout. To serve, divide slaw among four plates. Arrange halibut on top of slaw and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
