Peel and dice the kiwi fruit into small cubes. Remove the stems from the strawberries and dice them as well. Place both in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Finely chop the fresh cilantro and add it to the bowl. If using, mince the jalapeño (remove seeds for less heat) and stir it in.
Juice the lime over the fruit mixture, ensuring no seeds fall in. Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and gently toss the ingredients together. Set the salsa aside to marinate while preparing the fish.
Pat the sole fillets dry using a paper towel, then season both sides evenly with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper.
In a large non-stick skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter is melted and foamy.
Carefully place the sole fillets into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the cooked fish from the skillet and plate each fillet individually.
Top each fillet with a generous spoonful of the prepared kiwi lime strawberry salsa.
Serve immediately, garnished with extra cilantro if desired.
