Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. To prepare the peperonata:
  2. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add the onions, garlic, jalapeno and bell peppers, and salt and pepper to taste. Saute until the peppers are crisp-tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, cook for 2 minutes, then add the beer or stock and stir for a minute or two more. Top with the cilantro and set aside.
  3. Fish:
  4. Season the fish with salt and pepper. Arrange 3 shallow dishes; place the flour in one, beat the eggs in the second and scatter the bread crumbs in the third. Season the bread crumbs with 1 tablespoon grated lime zest, the chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder and thyme. Coat the fish in the flour, eggs, and seasoned bread crumbs.
  5. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium to medium high heat. If the pan is not large enough to fry 4 fillets, heat the oven to 275 degrees and place a cooling rack on a rimmed baking sheet. As you fry the fish, transfer it to the rack in the hot oven to keep warm. Cook the fish for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until deeply golden and crispy. Season with a little extra salt and top the fish with lots of lime juice and then the peperonata.
