Grilled Tilapia with Mango Salsa

This just in, it was sunny today!!! Finally, I think we have had 3 sunny days previous to today this whole year here in N. ID. It was nice to get out and take a walk, do a little yard work and even get the grill cleaned up and going after a long winter hibernation. This was the perfect meal for a day like today. It was light, flavorful and made it feel like summer was right around the corner. I hope you enjoy this dinner as much as hubby and I did!

Grilled Tilapia with Mango Salsa

6 Tilapia Fillets

Marinade:

1/3 C. Oil

1 TBSP Lemon Juice

1 TBSP Fresh Parsley 3 Cloves Garlic -crushed 1 tsp. Dried Basil 1 tsp. Pepper 1/2 tsp. Salt

Marinade the fish for at least 1 hour to reap the benefits of massive flavor. Its best to marinade at least 4-6 hours or overnight if possible. Toss em on the grill, they only take about 4 minutes a side depending on how thick they are.

Mango Salsa:

1 Diced Mango

1/2 Diced Red Bell Pepper

3 TBSP Cilantro

1/2 Onion Minced

1 Jalapeno Seeded and Minced

2 TBSP Lime Juice

1 TBSP Lemon Juice

Salt and Pepper

Chop all the veggies and mix together with the citrus juices. Let set at least an hour in the refrigerator or as long as the fish marinades.

I served the fish with Curry "Rice" that I added pineapple to, it really completed the meal by adding another touch of fruit. I will post the recipe soon.
