Fish Fillets in Red Pepper Sauce*
Fish Fillets in Red Pepper Sauce
1 cup coarsely chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 large red bell peppers, 12 ounces total, cored, seeded, and coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
4 4 ounce fish fillets such as scrod, cod, white fish, haddock, or orange roughy
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 lime, cut in wedges
In a large non-stick skillet, saute the onion and garlic in oil until tender,
about 5 minutes. Add the red peppers, coriander, and pepper flakes; saute 1
minute. Cover and cook over low heat until the peppers are very tender, about 8
minutes.
Transfer the mixture to a food processor or blender, blend until smooth,
scraping down the sides twice. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon of the salt.
Sprinkle the fish with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and place in the same
skillet. Spoon the puree over the fish, cover and simmer until the fish is
opaque, about 8 minutes. Serve the fish topped with the pepper puree and with
lime wedges.
