Halibut with Apricot Salsa

Appox. 300 Calories per serving. Recipe makes 1 serving.
A while ago, I made halibut with mango salsa. I didn't have any mangoes, but I bought some delicious apricots at the farmer's market, so I decided to adapt this recipe for the apricots. It was pretty good, but I liked the mango salsa better.
Ingredients
  • 4 oz halibut or other firm white fish
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 2 small apricots
  • 1 small chili peppers (<>
  • 4 sprigs cilantro (approx. 2 Tbs)
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1/8 cup red onion
  • 2 Tbs coconut milk
  • black pepper, to taste

Directions

  1. Remove pit and chop apricots into a fine dice.
  2. Cut chili peppers into thin rings (leaving in seeds).
  3. Finely chop cilantro and red onion.
  4. Mix together the apricot, cilantro, chili peppers, and red onion.
  5. Add oil and fish to a skillet. Cover and heat on medium for approx. 4 minutes.
  6. Season fish with pepper and flip.
  7. Add coconut milk to the pan, cover, and cook until fish flakes (approx. 3 minutes).
  8. Remove fish. Add apricot salsa to pan and toss with warm coconut milk.
  9. When salsa is just warmed, serve over the top of the fish.
