- Cut the cut fillets into 4-5 inch sections. In a medium size bowl, add the garlic, olive oil and spice mixture, along with the pieces of fish. Gently toss to coat and allow fish to marinate for up to 1 hour in the refrigerator.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Transfer fish to lightly oiled baking dish and bake in 350 degree oven for 15 minutes until firm on the outside but still slightly under-cooked inside. Reserve any remaining marinade and spices in bowl.
- Take fish out of the oven and set aside.
- In a deep heavy skillet, sauté onions in remaining Tablespoon of olive oil over medium high heat until browned. Pour tomato/pepper/coconut milk puree into marinating bowl with leftover spices and garlic. Stir until all is well-combined.
