Pan Fried Fish with Watermelon Salsa

(4 servings)


I love salsa, and this was another good way to use up some of that enormous watermelon I have in my refrigerator at the moment.

watermelon salsa, about 2 1/2 cups
2 cups seedless watermelon, diced
1 green onion, thinly sliced
1-2 small jalapeno peppers, seeded and diced
2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
1 tbsp fresh mint, chopped
juice from 2 key limes
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Combine all the ingredients, and let sit for 30 minutes or so.

fish fillets
3 tbsp flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 lbs sole fillets or other flaky white fish

2-3 tsp canola oil

limes for garnish

Combine the flour, salt and pepper on a plate. Dredge the fillets through the flour mixture to coat both sides; shake off the excess.

Heat a small amount of oil in a non stick skillet. Fry the fish until golden brown on both sides; about 2-4 minutes on each side (until it flakes easily) depending on the thickness of the fillet.

Serve with the salsa; garnish with lime slices.
