Sweet and Sour Fish

Ingredients

• 1 pound halibut
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 2 cups oil for deep frying
• 1 green bell pepper, diced
• 1 onion, diced
• 1 (8 ounce) can pineapple chunks, juice reserved
• 1 1/2 tablespoons white sugar
• Salt to taste
• 3 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour

Directions

Cut halibut into bite-size pieces. Place in a mixing bowl and combine with soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of flour. Let stand for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, heat oil in deep-fryer or heavy saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Deep fry halibut pieces until golden brown. Drain on paper towels; set aside.

For the Sauce, saute green pepper, onion and pineapple in a medium skillet for 1 minute. Stir in reserved pineapple juice, sugar, ketchup, water, remaining 2 teaspoons of flour, sesame oil, and salt to taste. Cook until thickened, stirring occasionally.

Serve, by dipping fried halibut pieces into sauce, or pour the sauce over the fish.
