Seattle Ute's recipe does sound really good. If you can't find a steamer, you can bake it, wrapping it in parchment paper (found in grocery stores), or foil, I suppose.

Here's the topping.
1-inch cube fresh gingerroot, finely chopped or grated
2 cloves garlic, peeled and finely chopped or grated
2 green onions (green part only), finely chopped
Fresh chile to taste
1 cup finely chopped cilantro
2 tbsp grapeseed (or safflower) oil
Dash of toasted sesame oil
Dash of soy sauce
Dash of fish sauce
4 tsp dark maple syrup

Top the fillets, wrap it in parchment paper, and bake at 400 degrees, 25 minutes.

Also, this recipe is supposed to be for bass or tilapia, but I don't see why halibut wouldn't work. It's the easiest dish to make.

Pan-seared Tilapia with Chili-lime butter

Sprinkle w/ salt, then sear the fish fillets, top with chili-lime butter
For chile lime butter
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallot
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh lime zest
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon minced fresh Thai or serrano chile (preferably red), including seeds
1/2 teaspoon salt
Excellent. Thanks!
