What to Do

Preheat the oven to 400°F
Place juices and ginger in a small saucepan over medium-high heat; cook until reduced by half, ~6 minutes; remove from heat; set aside.
Place butter and olive oil in a large skillet over high heat; season halibut with salt and pepper; when butter is melted and hot, place the fish skin side up in the skillet to sear ~3 minutes.
Line a baking sheet or broiler pan with foil; brush foil with some of the butter in the skillet.
Place halibut, seared-side-up, on the foil; brush top of fish with the remaining butter from the skillet; sprinkle with lemon zest.
Bake ~12 minutes, until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Why does this matter? A bit of olive oil with melted butter will prevent the butter from scorching (browning/burning)
