Tips:

  • Choose the Right Fish: For this recipe, firm-fleshed fish fillets like cod, tilapia, or salmon work best. They hold their shape well during baking and pair nicely with the tropical salsa.
  • Seasoning is Key: Don't be shy with the seasonings! A flavorful blend of paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper enhances the fish's natural taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon or lime juice for extra freshness.
  • Crispy Coating: To achieve that irresistible crispy coating, coat the fish fillets in a mixture of panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley. This combination provides a golden-brown crust and adds a delightful nutty flavor.
  • Tropical Salsa Perfection: The vibrant tropical salsa is what truly elevates this dish. Use a variety of fruits like mango, pineapple, and avocado, along with red onion, cilantro, and lime juice. Adjust the spiciness by adding jalapeño or serrano pepper to your preference.
  • Baking Technique: Bake the fish fillets in a preheated oven until they are cooked through and flaky. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of your fish fillets. Keep an eye on them to prevent overcooking.
  • Garnish and Serve: Once the fish is cooked, garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley. Serve immediately with the tropical salsa on top. You can also add a side of rice or your favorite roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
