Step 1
Whisk peanut butter, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, and 0.25 cup water in a small bowl until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Step 2
Pat fish dry and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
Step 3
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers. Sear fish 3 minutes per side without moving until golden and cooked through.
Step 4
Transfer fish to a plate. In the same skillet, pan-fry tempeh slices 2 minutes per side until edges crisp and brown, then set aside.
Step 5
Divide rice between two bowls. Top each with fish, tempeh, boiled eggs, and fresh vegetables.
Step 6
Drizzle peanut sauce generously over everything and serve immediately.
