Step 1 Prepare the fruit sauce: In a small bowl mix together the fruits, cilantro, and lime juice. Step 2 Prepare the syrup: In a small stew pan mix brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, and ¼ cup of water. Bring the mix to boil. Then, reduce heat and keep boiling for about 15 minutes over low heat without lid until liquid acquires a syrup consistency. Stir carefully and cool the syrup. (Cool syrup should be quite thick.) Step 3 Cook the fish filet: Preheat oven to 430 F. Sprinkle the fish with black pepper. Pour sesame or chia seeds on a shallow plate. Press one side of the fillet against the seeds for the seeds to cover the fish evenly. Step 4 Cover baking sheet with aluminum foil and cover it with vegetable oil. Put the fish on aluminum foil, seeds-covered side up. Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when lightly pressed with a fork. Do not turn the fish over during cooking. Step 5 Take the fish out of the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes before serving. Step 6 Each serving plate sprinkle with the syrup (about 1 tsp). Put the fish on top. Then, cover the fish with the fruit sauce.
