CARIBBEAN FISH WITH MANGO SALSA



Caribbean Fish With Mango Salsa image

Now for something completely different, how about a little Caribbean/Creole feel? This can be done with fish or with scallops and will wake up the little taste buds. Please forgive me, I am not a real recipe follower, and I change it around all the time. Hope this works for you, love to hear about it. I never wrote it as a recipe, sort of a seat of the pants guy. One item to complete it that I may add is Zatarain's Caribbean Rice®, and in this I add 1/2 red bell pepper and 1/4 cup of fresh pineapple.

Yield 2 servings; can be doubled

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 cup small cherry tomatoes, halved
1/3 cup chopped red onion
1 teaspoon minced jalapeño chili with seeds
1 teaspoon honey
4 3- to 4-ounce red snapper fillets

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Whisk oil, 1 tablespoon basil and lime juice in medium bowl to blend. Transfer 1 1/2 tablespoons dressing to small bowl and reserve for fish.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: For this recipe, firm-fleshed fish like salmon, tuna, or swordfish work best.
  • Sear the fish properly: To get a nice sear, make sure the fish is dry before cooking and use a hot skillet with a little oil.
  • Don't overcook the fish: Fish cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. A good rule of thumb is to cook the fish for about 5 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Make the salsa ahead of time: The salsa can be made up to a day ahead of time, which makes this recipe even easier.
  • Serve the fish with your favorite sides: This recipe is delicious served with roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa.
