Ingredients

  • 1 small green bell pepper
  • 4 (4 oz) barramundi fillets (about 1 lb)
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 1 cup crinkle-cut carrots
  • ⅔ cup ponzu sauce

Steps

    1. Slice onion and bell pepper thinly. Cut fish into 1-inch chunks (wash hands).
    2. Preheat large, nonstick sauté pan on medium-high 2–3 minutes. Place oil in pan, then add fish; cook 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned.
    3. Add onions, bell peppers, and carrots; cook 2 more minutes. Stir in sauce; cook and stir 1 minute or until sauce thickens and fish is opaque and flakes easily. Serve over rice or noodles, if desired.
    Always check fish for bones and cook to an internal temperature of 145°F.
