Sea Bass With Strawberry Orange Salsa

2 pounds sea bass fillets, cut into 6 pieces
Strawberry Orange Salsa:
2 large navel oranges
1 cup fresh strawberries, stemmed, chopped,
1 jalapeno chile, stemmed, seeded and minced
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint or fresh basil leaves
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 teaspoon honey or sugar
salt to taste

Peel the oranges and remove all the white pith (it has a bitter taste).
Section the oranges and finely chop, discarding the seeds. Put the chopped
oranges in a colander to drain 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer the chopped
oranges to a bowl with the strawberries, jalapenos, onions, mint and lime
juice. Season to taste with honey or sugar and salt. Cover and chill for 1
hour so the flavors can combine and mellow, or up to 8 hours.
Rinse the fish in cold water. Measure the thickness of the fish and pour
water into a deep skillet or saute pan to measure twice that thickness.
Bring the water to a boil, add the sea bass, cover the pan and remove it
from the heat. Let stand until the fish is opaque in the center, 10 to 12
minutes for fish pieces 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inches thick, or up to about 20
minutes.
Lift the fish from the pan and drain, then arrange on individual plates.
Spoon the salsa with its juice over fish and serve immediately.
Makes 6 servings.
