Recipe View 7 mins Prepare the Rice Wine Reduction: In a nonstick saucepan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add finely chopped shallot and garlic; cook until fragrant and softened, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in mirin, black bean sauce, and soy sauce. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the sauce has reduced by half, approximately 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in rice vinegar. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld.

Recipe View 1 mins Serve: Transfer the grilled halibut fillets to plates. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro and generously drizzle the prepared rice wine reduction over each fillet. Serve immediately and enjoy.

For an even more intense flavor, marinate the halibut fillets in the sesame oil and black pepper for 15-20 minutes before grilling.
If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can pan-sear the halibut in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
Serve with a side of steamed rice, quinoa, or grilled vegetables to complete the meal.
Adjust the amount of black bean sauce to your preference, as it can be quite salty.

    The sauce was a little too salty for my taste, so I reduced the amount of soy sauce.
