Fish With Pineapple Chutney - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 fish fillets (suggest red snapper, pompano, tuna, mahi mahi, swordfish)
    Chutney
    1 cup fresh pineapple chunk (or drained, unsweetened canned chunks, reserve juice)
    1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
    1 lemon, peeled and seeded
    1 green chili pepper, seeds removed if milder flavor desired
    1 cup chopped red bell pepper
    1/4 cup chopped scallion
    2 teaspoons grated fresh gingerroot
    Tabasco sauce (to taste)
    salt (to taste)
    lemon wedge (garnish)
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 375\u00b0F.
    Rinse the fish fillets, pat dry and set aside.
    In a food processor, briefly whirl the pineapple, lemon peel, lemon, chile, bell peppers, scallions, ginger and Tabasco till the chutney has a confetti-like appearance. Add reserved juice if chutney seems too dry.
    Add salt to taste.
    Arrange the fish in a lightly oiled baking dish.
    Grill the fish till tender and cooked through and serve topped with chutney.
    Alternatively: Top with chutney and bake, covered, for 20-25 minutes, till fish flakes easily with a fork.
    Garnish with lemon wedges.
