Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Set an oven rack into the center of the oven.

03

Step

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and coat with cooking spray.

04

Step

Arrange halibut pieces on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are touching.

05

Step

In a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, chili-garlic sauce, sugar, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Gently fold in the sliced mushrooms and onions until well combined. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Evenly spread the mushroom mixture over the halibut pieces, ensuring each piece is generously coated.

07

Step

Squeeze the juice from one lemon half over the mushroom-topped halibut. Season lightly with Kosher salt. (2 minutes)

08

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the halibut is almost opaque, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven.

09

Step

Raise the oven rack with the baking sheet to the next-highest level. Switch the oven setting to broil.

10

Step

Broil the fish until the topping is beautifully browned and slightly caramelized, about 8-10 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

11

Step

Squeeze the juice from the remaining lemon half evenly over the broiled fish. (1 minute)

12

Step

Garnish generously with sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Serve immediately.

For a richer flavor, use Japanese mayonnaise (Kewpie) instead of regular mayonnaise.
Adjust the amount of chile-garlic sauce to your preference. Start with a smaller amount and add more to taste.
Serve atop sushi rice or alongside steamed vegetables for a complete and balanced meal.
