3. To make salsa: Mix grapefruit, orange, red onion, cilantro and sugar. Refrigerate as long as possible, up to 2 days before serving.
   
   
4. Rub 1 tablespoon butter on each seasoned halibut fillet. The butter will help to keep the fish from sticking to the grill. Grill over high heat 2 to 3 minutes per side. Just before fillets are done, spread 1 to 2 tablespoon citrus butter on the halibut and let it melt into the fillet.
   
   Serve with citrus salsa.
