Cooking the Fish
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little coconut oil. Cook the marinated fish for 5-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through and flaky. Once cooked, remove the fish and set aside.

Sautéing the Vegetables
In the same skillet, add more coconut oil if needed, and sauté chopped onion and bell pepper until they are soft and translucent (about 5 minutes). Add chopped tomatoes and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in chopped cilantro and cook for another minute.

Assembling the Dish
Using a sharp knife, cut the cooled cornmeal base into squares. Place each square on a serving plate and top with sautéed vegetables and a piece of the cooked fish. Garnish with extra cilantro and lime wedges if desired.
