- Turn the corn and char on all sides, about 4 to 5 minutes.

- Add the fish and coat thoroughly.
- Place the seasoned halibut on the grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes on each side.
- With a knife, cut the charred corn kernels from the cobs.
- Add the corn kernels to the skillet with the onion mixture, stir, and continue to cook for about 2 to 3 more minutes, or until the corn is cooked through.
- Add the cilantro and lime juice and stir to combine.
- Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper.
