Portuguese-Style Fish

  • 1 small fresh chili pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 2 tsp Hawaiian salt

Mash chili pepper with salt. Add remaining marinade ingredients and stir until salt dissolves.

Marinate 2 lbs fish filets cut 1/2-inch thick 3-4 hours, turning occasionally to flavor evenly. Place fish on broiler pan; brush surface with olive oil. Broil 4 inches from heat for 4 minutes on one side; turn, brush with oil and broil 3-4 minutes longer. Serve with Onion Sauce.

  • 1 Tbsp round onion, finely minced
  • 1 tsp minced parsley
  • 1½ Tbsp cider vinegar
  • 1/2 small fresh chili pepper, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp Hawaiian salt

Combine all ingredients; let stand 15 minutes before serving. Pour over hot fish.

Yield: 4-6 servings
