Fish with Fresh Papaya

Pan fried white fish with an unexpected pairing of sweet and slightly musky scented papaya.

Ingredients:

1 small onion, diced

1 tsp olive oil

1 cup diced fresh papaya

black pepper to taste

2 tbsps slivered sundried tomatoes in oil

1/2 tsp hot sauce

2 basa (or other white fish) fillets

2 tbsps pineapple juice (or chicken broth but the juice gives it a nice sweetness)

 

Heat oil to medium high and add the onion, browning for 2-3 minutes. Then add the sundried tomatoes, papaya and hot sauce. Reduce heat to medium low and cook 2-3 minutes.

Push the mixture to the sides of the pan and add the fish to the center. Cook 2 minutes then flip, add black pepper to taste. Pour juice or broth around the fish and cook 3-4 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork

Serves 2
