Mango Tilapia


INGREDIENTS

  • 4 tilapia fillets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
  • dash of pepper
Salsa:
  • 1 mango - peeled, seeded and diced
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 avocado - peeled, pitted and diced
  • 3 roma tomatoes - peeled, seeded and chopped
  • 1 lime, zested and juiced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  2. In a shallow baking dish, combine the olive oil, orange juice, and pepper. Rinse the fish fillets and pat them dry. Place them into the baking dish and turn to coat with the seasonings.
  3. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, until fish can be flaked with a fork.
  4. While the fish cooks, combine the mango, onion, avocado, tomatoes, lime zest and juice, cilantro and 1 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Stir to blend and set aside at room temperature until fish has finished cooking. Place fillets on a platter and spoon the salsa over them to serve.
I suggest serving this over rice. This is amazing stuff and it doesn't get much healthier! Enjoy!

(Let me know how this goes, Hue! Happy Cooking!!)
