Halibut with Pepper Salsa Recipe
1. For pepper salsa, in a small bowl combine vinegar, soy sauce, and ginger. In another small bowl combine 2 tablespoons of the vinegar mixture and the black pepper; set aside. To the remaining vinegar mixture, add bell pepper, cucumber, green onion, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, and sesame oil; toss to coat. Cover and chill until serving time or up to 1 hour.
2. Thaw fish, if frozen. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Place fish on the greased unheated rack of a broiler pan. Brush steaks with the reserved 2 tablespoons vinegar mixture. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Broil 4 inches from the heat for 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. (If steaks are 1 inch thick, turn once halfway through broiling.) If desired, line serving plates with cabbage leaves. Place fish on cabbage leaves and serve with pepper salsa.
*Note: Because hot chile peppers contain oils that can burn your skin and eyes, wear rubber or plastic gloves when working with them. If your bare hands do touch the chile peppers, wash your hands well with soap and water.

I did find the sauce mixture to be a little bland and we used a good variety of salsa. I think to highlight the salsa more, I would try halving the mayo.
