HALIBUT

To prepare the vinaigrette: In a bowl, whisk together the grated ginger, mustard and vinegar. Then add chili, sesame and canola oils, whisking until thickened. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.

To prepare the halibut: Spray the top of a broiling pan with cooking spray. Line the pan bottom with aluminum foil. Cut the halibut into ½-inch-thick slices.

Combine the sesame seeds and crumbs; dredge the halibut in the mixture and place on the prepared pan. Sprinkle lightly with paprika, salt and pepper. Bake in a preheated 450-degree (F) oven for about 6 to 8 minutes, or until cooked through.

Transfer the halibut to serving plates and drizzle with the vinaigrette.
