I can hear the clamor now

You all want to know, what are these fish fajitas?

Be still, and I shall tell thee!

Fish Fajitas

2-3 fillets of red snapper (aka rockfish), cut in strips
1 can pineapple chunks with juice
salt and pepper

1/2 red bell pepper
1/2 green bell pepper
1 small onion
1 tsp olive oil

4-6 small flour tortillas
shredded mild cheese

fresh cilantro, chopped
lime wedges
light sour cream or yogurt

Marinate fish with pineapple, juice, salt and pepper. Arrange tortillas on large baking sheet and sprinkle with cheese. Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Meanwhile, slice vegetables and cook on med-high heat in a large skillet in olive oil until tender. Salt and pepper to taste. Remove from pan.

Place tortillas in oven.

Drain fish and pineapple and cook in same pan without stirring too much (you don't want to break up the fish and turn it into mush). The fish is done when it's all white.

Serve fish mixture and veggie mixture on tortillas, with cilantro, lime and sour cream to garnish. Also, optionally, your favorite fresh salsa, red or green.

You can pretend it's summer, even when there's a thick tule fog outside!

I originally got this recipe from epicurious.com.

I've got some salmon (Alaskan, I think!) that I'll trade you for some halibut...

Sorry hon, it probably won't happen today. Sick, trying to do Christmas stuff, etc.

Holey-moley, these sounds yummy, Ana. Really craving spices now that our New England winter is in full gear...
