Ingredients

• 4 pieces fish fillets (e.g., tilapia, cod, or snapper)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon ground paprika
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup pineapple (fresh or canned, diced)
• 0.5 cup red onion (finely chopped)
• 1 piece jalapeño (seeded and finely chopped)
• 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons cilantro (chopped, for garnish)
• 1 piece lime (cut into wedges, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse and pat dry the fish fillets. Season them on both sides with salt, black pepper, and paprika.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fish fillets and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish from the skillet and set aside, keeping them warm.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the red onion and jalapeño, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Step 4

Stir in the grated ginger and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the diced pineapple, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and ground cinnamon to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for 8-10 minutes on medium heat, allowing the flavors to meld and the chutney to thicken slightly.

Step 6

Adjust seasoning if necessary, adding a pinch of salt or more sugar to taste.

Step 7

Serve the cooked fish fillets on a plate and spoon the pineapple chutney generously over the top.

Step 8

Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side. Enjoy your tropical-inspired meal!
