Directions
PREPARATION — FISH
Once you have all the ingredients ready, preheat oven to 375°.
Grab your favorite non-stick pan and set the stove to medium-high. Do not add any oil to the pan while you are heating it up.
Once the pan is hot enough, add a tablespoon of your favorite cooking oil.
Culinary Tip: “Squeeze lemon or lime juice on both sides of the fish as it cooks to help bring out the flavor. Also, don’t be afraid of seasoning. Have fun with it.”
GLAZE
In a mixing bowl, place agave, passionfruit, pepper flakes, salt and pepper, and mix all together.
SALSA
In a mixing bowl, add pineapple, mango, onions, cilantro, lime juice, salt and pepper, and mix all together.
QUINOA
In a saucepan, add quinoa, coconut milk, ½ cup of water, agave and salt to taste, and stir.
Bring to a simmer on medium-high, then cover it and turn to low heat.
Cook for about 10 minutes or until the liquid has evaporated and the quinoa is fluffy.
PLATING
Add ½ cup to 1 cup of quinoa to the plate.
Place one fillet of fish on top of quinoa.
Add a spoonful of the salsa on the top of the fish.
Drizzle the fish and around it with the passionfruit glaze.
