Steps:
- Whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, parsley, garlic, basil, 1 teaspoon pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the tilapia fillets, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
- Prepare by combining the mango, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeno pepper in a bowl. Add the lime juice and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and toss well. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil grate.
- Remove the tilapia from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Grill the fillets until the fish is no longer translucent in the center, and flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets. Serve the tilapia topped with mango salsa.
GRILLED TILAPIA WITH MANGO SALSA
Don't let the list of ingredients fool you: this is super-easy, and gets rave reviews whenever I serve it. The salsa can be made the day ahead to save time. Strawberries can be substituted for the mango if you prefer--both are excellent! Combine leftover salsa with some drained black beans the next day for lunch.

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium-high.
- Lightly coat the mango slices and onion discs in olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place mango slices on a medium high grill approximately 2 minutes on each side. Grill onions approximately 2 to 4 minutes on each side, being careful to turn only once (this will help keep them together and avoid pieces falling through the grill). When mangos have nice grill marks after a couple minutes on each side, remove from grill. Once onions have slightly charred, but still retain moderate firmness, remove from grill.
- Chop the mango and onion and place in large mixing bowl. Combine all of the above ingredients including juice of lime and orange and add salt and pepper to taste. In the mixing process a large amount of juice will gather at the bottom of the bowl. I recommend draining the juice, and placing the salsa in a refrigerator, covered for approximately 20 minutes. Then, use the salsa on top of grilled fish or serve as a side dish.
LAWANNA'S MANGO SALSA ON TILAPIA FILLETS
A delicious fruity salsa topping to serve over fish or chicken, from a friend in Florida. I always use whatever that I have left in a mixed greens salad the next day. Use any kind of fish -- I use tilapia or salmon. The fish may also be grilled, which is what I prefer. If I can't find a good fresh pineapple, I will use canned pineapple tidbits.

Here's a new twist on tilapia that I created for my wife. She enjoys the combination of mango with Parmesan. Somehow it tastes even better outside on the deck with a cold glass of iced tea. -Gregg May, Columbus, Ohio

Tips:
- Choose fresh tilapia: Fresh tilapia should have a mild, slightly sweet smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have an off odor.
- Marinate the tilapia: Marinating the tilapia in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices helps to enhance its taste and keep it moist during grilling.
- Grill the tilapia over medium heat: Grilling the tilapia over medium heat helps to prevent it from overcooking and becoming dry.
- Use a non-stick grill pan or spray the grill grates with cooking spray: This will help to prevent the tilapia from sticking to the grill.
- Cook the tilapia until it is cooked through: The tilapia is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork. Be careful not to overcook it, or it will become dry.
- Serve the tilapia with mango salsa: Mango salsa is a refreshing and flavorful accompaniment to grilled tilapia. It is made with fresh mangoes, tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and lime juice.
Conclusion:
