Website Wednesday: Halibut with Zesty Peach Salsa

July 12, 2012

Do you have a lame grocery store?

I get so frustrated when I go to my local grocery store and
can’t find things I need. And my frustration is even more compounded, because my
local store is not some Mom and Pop operation, it is a state wide chain that
has pretty much taken over Texas and we really don’t have very many other
grocery store options.
Like why carry one variety of a particular brand but not
another variety that the same brand sells. Or tell me why no stores sell Matzo?
And even the products that they do sell they are out of every time I go to the
store, (like fresh ginger and garlic, what type of grocery store runs out of
garlic?!?).

So imagine my frustration when I wanted to make this Halibut with Zesty Peach Salsa to only discover my ‘said’ grocery store did not have halibut!
Sure I could trek across town to the closest Whole Foods and pick some up but
on that day that was not an option.

And I guess (heavy sigh) it was better any ways to do
without, since halibut could have put a heavy dent in my wallet.

In my anger and frustration I decided to just use some tilapia
fillets I already had at home and boycott spending any more money at ‘said’
store. So if you are like me and your store doesn’t sell halibut or it is too
expensive, you can use tilapia, cod, bass or any other white fish in this
recipe.

Oh and speaking of this recipe, prepared as is the fish is
mild with a light citrus tang, but the salsa as written packs a spicy punch
that is cooled by the sweet and juicy peaches. My suggestion is if you are
sensitive to the heat or want to serve this to kids is leave out the peppers (I
had some from a friend’s garden that needed to be used) or make two separate
batches of salsa.
