Method

Preparation

Prepare the Fish

Clean the fish thoroughly and make a few slits on both sides. Rub with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Stuff the cavity with Thai basil and lime slices.

Make the Spicy Peanut Sauce

In a bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, chili paste, honey, and water until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more water if necessary.

Prepare the Green Papaya Salad

In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded green papaya, shredded carrots, cherry tomatoes, and green beans. In a separate bowl, whisk together fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, and chili flakes. Pour over the salad and toss to combine. Top with chopped roasted peanuts.

Grilling

Grill the Fish

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the prepared fish on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

Serve

Serve the grilled fish hot, drizzled with spicy peanut sauce, alongside the green papaya salad.
