Cranberry and honey “pickle”

• 3 cups frozen cranberries • 1 cup dried cranberries • 1/4 cup honey • 1 tsp sea salt • 1 tsp cracked black pepper • 1 cup cranberry juice • 3 tbsp red wine vinegar

Instructions: 1. Pan sear, BBQ or grill the fish for about 2-3 minutes per side, season with Vancouver Island sea salt and cracked black pepper.
