Today’ recipe is a Cajun style fish, to go along with it I’m making a delicious sweet and sour pineapple Salsa, this is the perfect combo to make some amazing Tacos. This is so easy to make, so full of flavor and easy enough to make any day of the week.
Ingredients:
- 4-5 Fish Fillets
- 2 tspn Paprika
- 2 tspn Brown Sugar
- 1 tspn Dry Oregano
- 1 tspn Ground Garlic
- ½ tspn Ground Cumin
- ¼ tspn Cayenne Pepper
- Salt
- Black Pepper
- +2 T Coconut Oil
Ingredients for the Salsa
- 3 Pineapple slices
- 3 Tomatoes cut in quarters
- 1 Small Onion cut in half
- 1 Garlic Cloves
- ¼ C Chopped Cilantro
- 3-5 Jalapeño Peppers
- ½ T Coconut Oil
Prepare the Fish: Combine all spices and season with salt and pepper to taste. Rub this mixture onto the fish let it rest for about 5-10 minutes before cooking.
Make the Salsa: In a skillet heat up the oil, and saute the tomatoes, onion and peppers for 3 minutes, then add in the garlic and continue to saute for 2-3 more minutes. Then transfer to a blender. In the same skillet heat up the pineapple for about 1-2 minutes on each side, just to soften it a bit. Add two of the pineapple slices into the blender with the rest of the ingredients, also add some cilantro, and season with salt and pepper to taste, blend for a few seconds, until you get a thick and chunky salsa. (do not add any water at all to blend the ingredients, you are looking for a really thick and chunky consistency).
Chop the rest of the pineapple into small cubes and combine with the salsa, taste the flavor add more salt and pepper if needed. Reserve until you are ready to use it.
Fry the Fish: Heat up the oil, and fry the fish for about 2-4 minutes on each side or until well cooked.
Then serve, top the fish with plenty of the Salsa and Enjoy!
