Ingredients
    3 medium red bell peppers
    5 tablespoons olive oil
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/2 cup pitted kalamata olive (or other brine-cured black olives)
    1/2 cup red onion, chopped
    1/3 cup cilantro, chopped
    1/4 cup golden raisin
    3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

    2 teaspoons grated orange peel

    Char peppers over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides, turning frequently with tongs. Transfer peppers to medium bowl. Cover with foil; let stand 10 minutes. Peel, seed, and coarsely chop peppers; return to same bowl.
    Heat 1 Tb oil in heavy small skillet over medium heat.
    Add cumin and cinnamon; stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour oil mixture over peppers. Mix in olives, next 7 ingredients, and 2 Tb oil. Season salsa with salt and pepper. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover; let stand at room temperature, tossing occasionally).
    Preheat broiler.
    Brush fish all over with 2 Tb oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil until fish is opaque in center, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer fish to plates. Spoon salsa over.
