Method

Fish Marinade

  1. 1

    Marinate the Fish

    In a bowl, mix the garlic powder, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, lime juice, and olive oil. Add the fish fillets, ensuring they're coated well. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Black Rice

  1. 2

    Cook Black Rice

    In a medium pot, combine black rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 30-35 minutes until rice is tender. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

Asparagus

  1. 3

    Prepare Asparagus

    Trim the woody ends of the asparagus. Toss the asparagus with olive oil and salt. Grill or roast at 400°F (200°C) for about 10-15 minutes until tender and lightly charred.

Caribbean Spice Cream Sauce

  1. 4

    Make Sauce

    In a small saucepan, heat heavy cream over medium heat. Stir in curry powder and lime juice. Season with salt to taste. Simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.

Grilled Pineapple Salsa

  1. 5

    Prepare Salsa

    In a bowl, combine diced pineapple, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and set aside to let flavors meld.

Shishito Peppers

  1. 6

    Cook Shishito Peppers

    Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the shishito peppers and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until blistered and slightly charred. Season with salt.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Assemble the Dish

    On a plate, serve a portion of black rice, top with grilled fish, asparagus, and shishito peppers. Drizzle with Caribbean spice cream sauce and garnish with grilled pineapple salsa.
