2 large pieces cod
Pantry
3 XL flour tortillas
1/4 tsp smoked paprika
1/4 tsp chipotle chilo powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2 cup oil

2 peaches
1 jalapeno
1/2 red onion

Make your chips. Preheat oven to 400F. Cut tortillas into large triangles (chip size). To a large bowl, add 1/4 cup oil, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp smoked paprika, 1/4 tsp chipotle chili powder, 1/4 tsp garlic powder and mix well. Add in tortillas and gently toss to coat (use your hands).
Place on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 5-7 minutes until lightly golden brown.
Grill your peaches. If you have a grill pan use it, if not just use a regular frying pan but add a bit more oil to the peaches. Cut peaches into eighths, you can leave the skin on. Drizzle with about 2 tbsp oil and rub the oil all over. Sprinkle with salt. Grill peaches on both sides for about 2 minutes each. Once cooled enough, peel and dice them for the salsa.
Make your salsa. To a large bowl, add 1/4 cup diced onions, 1 diced jalapeno, 1 minced garlic clove, the juice of 1 lime, diced grilled peaches, a pinch of salt and 1 tbsp olive oil. Mix well and set aside.
Make your fish. To a small bowl, add 1 tbsp old bay seasoning and 1 1/2 tbsp brown sugar. Mix well. Sprinkle onto cod in a thin layer.
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large frying pan on medium high heat. Once hot, add fish and sear for about 2 minutes per side or until internal temp reaches 145F.
Serve the fish topped with the salsa, chips on the side, and remaining and chips and salsa as a bonus on the side!
