Cut the passion fruits in half and use a spoon to scoop out the pulp and seeds into a bowl. Discard the shells.
In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped red onion and minced garlic. SautΓ© until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the passion fruit pulp, fresh orange juice, and coconut aminos to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.
Simmer the mixture on low heat for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the mixture to slightly thicken.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper.
Let the sauce cool slightly, then stir in the chopped cilantro.
Taste for seasoning and adjust as necessary.
Transfer the sauce to a serving bowl or jar. It can be served warm or at room temperature over your favorite Whole30 compliant dishes.
