Shark 'n' Bake

Submitted by Danielle Konefal


1 pound catfish or tilapia fillets (substituted for blacktip shark)
3 tbsp fresh lime juice
3 tbsp finely chopped green onion
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
3/4 teaspoon minced seeded Scotch bonnet chile or habanero chile
3 tbsp vegetable oil
All-purpose flour
6 pita bread rounds, warmed
Chopped lettuce leaves
Tomato slices
Assorted condiments- mango chutney, garlic mayonnaise, honey mustard, thinly sliced cucumbers, thinly sliced onion and hot pepper sauce

Arrange fish in single layers in glass baking dish. Mix lime juice, green onion, garlic, thyme and chile in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper. Spoon over fish, letting stand at room temperature at least 20 minutes, and up to an hour.

Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

 

Sprinkle fish on both sides with salt and pepper, then flour. Working in batches, add fish to the skillet and cook until golden  in the center, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer fish to paper towels to drain.

 

Cut off a thin slice from each warm pita bread round, forming an opening. Open pita pockets and stuff with fish, lettuce and tomato.

 

Serve with desired condiments.
