Fish with Nectarine and Mint Salsa


I have a huge backlog of posts that I wrote up the recipe and took the pictures, but never edited. So here is a recipe I made back in July - no joke. You don't need to use plums, any stone fruit would work: nectarines, peaches, cherries. You could also add a little minced jalapeno if you are in the mood for something spicier.




Ingredients
- 2 c. of diced stone fruit
- Juice from 1 lemon
- Handful or two of mint leaves
- 3 green onion diced
- Sugar to taste (if the fruit is tart)
- Some type of white fish (I used mahi mahi)
- Olive Oil
- Salt
- Pepper


Mix the fruit, 1/2 the lemon juice, mint and green onions in a bowl and let sit for 15-20 minutes at room temperature. Meanwhile heat up a little olive oil in a frying pan. Season the fish with salt and pepper and saute each side until fish is cooked. A trick to telling if your fish is to apply a little pressure with your spatula and if the fish begins to flake apart is it done. I served it over quinoa, there is something about the combination of fish and quinoa that I love.
