Why? Who put you on this diet? This sounds so limiting that you'd probably be best off discussing this with a registered dietician.
I'm not even sure why you'd need recipes for this. Just combine different meats and fruits that you like? Without spices, additional oils, vegetables, or grains, you don't really need recipes.
Just like . . . put some pineapple of steak or some blueberries on chicken or . . . whatever strikes your fancy?
I thought I'd heard of most diets, but this is a first!
Yeah, this sounds very limiting and I wouldn’t recommend it at all if this is just a fad diet or something a personal trainer told you to do. But, here are some ideas. Since it’s only meat and fruit, there’s really no “recipe” required. No fish? Too bad, I had some good ideas.
Pork Chops with applesauce
Chicken baked with thin-sliced apples & lemons
Ham Steak with pineapple
Turkey with saucy cranberries
Ground lamb & beef with cranberries & apples
Shredded chicken bowl with mangos, pineapple, & shredded coconut
Orange marinated steak strips
Chicken with a side of grapes & banana
Bacon wrapped chicken breast with a plum or apricot reduction
Instant pot chicken thighs cooked with coconut milk, golden raisins, & mango
If tomato is a fruit (it technically is), then make a simple tomato reduction (aka plain tomato sauce) with any meat it sounds good with.
Balsamic vinegar is made out of just grapes. Does that count?
If so, then chicken with grape tomatoes in a balsamic reduction sauce.
Balsamic-glazed steak.
Shrimp or chicken with a raspberry-strawberry-mango-lime salsa.

Maybe you are good at getting veggies and grains into your daily routine. I won't make assumptions.
For fruits I am more likely to go for raw and things I can just eat without prep. Apples, oranges, bananas, berries. Or things that need just a little prep like mango or kiwi. I don't really 'cook' with fruit.
For meat, I mostly use chicken breast. A few ideas:
Season it (or not) and then cook in a skillet with a little olive oil. I sometimes use salt/pepper/blackened seasoning, or garlic salt & pepper.
Mix some breadcrumbs with grated parmesan cheese. Dip chicken breast strips in olive oil, then coat with bread crumbs and bake. (Do not forget to log the olive oil, bread crumbs and parmesan cheese.)
Melt some butter, add in some vinegar and seasonings. This makes a really good baste for grilling chicken. Flip the chicken pieces often, basting each time. I use about equal parts butter & vinegar.
If you truly do not want to cook the meat with anything else, then you may need to add a little water to the pot/pan/skillet to help it not stick, until the moisture from the meat starts to cook out. But in that scenario, almost any meat can be cooked in a skillet or baked in the oven. Just pay attention to time/temperature based on the thickness of the meat to make sure it gets done.

These all sounds awesome.
