First, Clean fish in lime and water, pat dry and marinate with Green seasoning.

Next, add 2 tsp of oil to a large saucepan. Carefully place the steaks in the pan and brown on each side. Remove from the pan once the fish has browned.

To the same pan add the 3 tbsp of butter to melt then toss in the peppers, Scotch bonnet, onions, Fresh Thyme, garlic and ginger. Let this cook down until the peppers and onions are tender.

After the veg has cooked, pour in the coconut milk and add the seasonings then allow the sauce to come down (thicken).
