  2. Make the pesto: In a food processor combine coriander, cheese, pine nuts, lime juice, chilies, salt and pepper; process until finely chopped.
  3. With machine running, add 1/4 cup (50 mL) olive oil through the feed tube; continue to process until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl once.

  5. Divide in half.
  6. Store one half for another use, tightly covered, in refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  7. Set other half aside.
  8. Brush the underneath (darker side) of the fillets with a little oil.
  9. Lay on baking sheet, oiled side down.
  10. Spread about 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the pesto on each filet covering the entire surface.
  11. Bake for 6 minutes, without turning.
  12. Remove from oven and divide fillets between 4 warmed plates.
  13. Heap 1 tbsp (15 mL) pesto on the middle of each fillet.
  14. Decorate with 2 red pepper strips making an x on each fillet.
