What it is
A pan-seared fillet of the day's fresh local catch (e.g., Grouper or Snapper), accompanied by a generous serving of 'stewed down' bell peppers and onions, slow-cooked until soft, sweet, and rich in a savory, aromatic sauce.
Key ingredients
Fresh fish fillet, bell peppers, yellow onion, garlic, fresh thyme, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, scotch bonnet (optional).
If you order it anyway
Ensure the 'stewed down' mixture contains no added sugars or flour thickeners. Specify no starchy side dishes are to be served.
Watch out for
Restaurants might add sugar to 'sweeten' the stewed vegetables. Flour or cornstarch could be used as thickeners. Excessive portions of peppers and onions can increase carb count.
