Season fish chunks with salt and pepper. Place in a bowl, drizzle with lemon juice, and toss to marinate while preparing the curry base.

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add sliced onions, minced garlic, curry powder, chili powder, and turmeric. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until onions are softened and fragrant.

Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their liquid), peanut butter, diced green bell pepper, and sliced ginger. Cook, stirring, until the peanut butter is well incorporated into the sauce.

Pour in the coconut milk and water. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and cook for about 10 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.

Gently add the marinated fish chunks to the simmering sauce. Stir carefully to submerge the fish. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
