Servings: 6
Serving Size: 4 ounces fish with 1/3 cup salsa

1 1/2 tsp no-salt chili powder blend
1 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp cayenne
6 (4 oz) halibut steaks (3/4-to 1-inch thick)

In a small bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, and cayenne.
Mix well. Place halibut on a large plate. Brush both sides of
fish with lime juice and sprinkle both sides with chili powder
mixture. Let stand at room temperature for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, spray a grill rack with cooking spray. Preheat a

grill, with the rack placed 4 to 6 inches above the heat.

In a medium bowl, combine black beans, salsa, green
onion, and cilantro, and mix well. Set aside.
