Grilled Fish With Salsa and an Avocado Sauce image

This is a very simple dish it is more of a summer dish, but I thought I would post it as I fancied something a little lighter the other night and made this. It is extremely healthy low in fat and carbohydrates, yet has loads of flavour. I just serve this with salad on the side.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 firm white fish fillets (I used cod, but I have also made this with halibut which is yummy.)
olive oil
1 medium red pepper
1 medium green pepper
3 1/2 tablespoons corn kernels, drained
1 red onion, finely chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh coriander, finely chopped
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
60 ml sweet chili sauce
1 large avocado
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 teaspoon garlic powder
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 pinch cayenne (I do quite a generous pinch)
3/4 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Quarter peppers and remove seeds and membranes. Grill pepper, skin side up, until skin blisters and blackens. Peel skin away and chop finely. Combine pepper and remaining ingredients in a bowl, mix well, refrigerate until needed.
  • Avocado Sauce.
  • Mash avocado in a bowl with lime juice until quite smooth, add garlic, mayo, cayenne and sugar and mix, until well combined. Again refrigerate until needed.
  • Fish.
  • Brush fish with olive oil, BBQ, Grill or pan fry fish until tender and cooked through. Cooking time will vary according to the thickness of the fish, but it will be no longer than 6-10 minutes.
  • To serve: Arrange fish on a plate spoon salsa over the top serve avocado sauce on the side. I also serve a nice green salad with this dish, very light and yummy.
