Recipe Introduction


Cooking the fish and the cilantro-pepper sauce together takes full advantage of the flavor of the sauce.






List of Ingredients



• 3 cups loosely packed fresh cilantro leaves
  
• 1/3 cup water
  
• 4 teaspoons fresh lime juice
  
• 4 fresh Thai red or green chilies,* seeded and chopped
  
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
  
• Pinch sugar
  
• 4 red snapper, flounder, sole, or orange roughy fillets (4 oz. each)
  
• Salt
  






Instructions



1. Make Cilantro Sauce: Combine all sauce ingredients in blender; puree until smooth. Makes 3/4 cup.
   
2. Heat oven to 400 degree F. Lightly oil 4 squares of foil or parchment paper. Place fish on foil. Lightly sprinkle with salt; spread 2 teaspoons of the Cilantro Sauce on each fillet. Fold foil up around fish and crimp edges to seal; place on cookie sheet and bake 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve fish with remaining sauce.
