Fish with tropical salsa

Pan-fried white fish topped with a fresh pineapple, avocado, and tomato salsa, a light, summery, high-protein dinner that comes together in 15 minutes.

Fish with tropical salsa

Light, fresh, and ready in 15 minutes. Terakihi or gurnard work best, they don’t have a strong fishy flavour, so the salsa shines. Serve with greens for a clean, summery dinner.

Ingredients

  • Salsa: 1/4 cup fresh pineapple, cubed
  • Salsa: 1 tablespoon red onion, chopped
  • Salsa: 1/4 cup finely chopped avocado and tomato
  • Salsa: 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
  • Salsa: salt and pepper
  • Fish: 1 white fish fillet (terakihi or gurnard work well)
  • Fish: 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • Fish: dash chilli flakes
  • Fish: salt

Method

  1. Combine all salsa ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  2. Heat the coconut oil in a pan over medium heat.
  3. Pan-fry the fish, sprinkling with chilli flakes and salt while cooking. About 2–3 minutes per side depending on thickness.
  4. Serve with green vegetables and the tropical salsa over the top.
