Mango-licious Tilapia image

My son's girlfriend, Nicole, named this 'mango-licous'. The mango salsa is great over the tilapia, as a dip or on cottage cheese. Try serving the tilapia over brown basmati rice or lightly dressed salad greens for a complete meal. Then generously top with the salsa. Mango-licious!!

GRILLED TILAPIA WITH MANGO SALSA



Grilled Tilapia with Mango Salsa image

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.

Time 1h55m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 16

⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil

Add the tilapia fillets, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

BEER-BATTERED TILAPIA WITH MANGO SALSA



Beer-Battered Tilapia With Mango Salsa image

This is a recipe I've seen credited to EatingWell.com. I made some slight revisions: more spice, only whole wheat flour, dark beer, less vinegar and lime juice and mint in the salsa instead of cilantro. I omitted the salt entirely. I used a large, shallow frying pan so I was able to cook all the pieces at once.

Time 35m

Yield 4 pieces, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 mango, diced
1/4 cup red onion, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon of fresh mint, chopped
5 tablespoons whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 cup dark beer
3/4 lb tilapia fillet (2 fillets)
2 -3 tablespoons corn oil

Steps:

  • Combine the mango, onion, vinegar, lime juice and mint. Let sit in the fridge while preparing fish (if you can refrigerate it for an hour or more, that's even better).
  • Combine flour, spices, and beer. Using a whisk helps get any lumps out. Put the batter in a shallow dish.
  • Clean and dry the tilapia fillets. Cut in half length-wise.
  • Heat the oil in a large shallow frying pan at medium-high heat.
  • Coat each piece of fish with batter and place in hot oil.
  • Cook on each side for about 2-3 minutes - until batter is crusty and fish is white.
  • Place fish pieces on paper towels to blot excess oil.
  • Serve mango salsa over fish. (I also like to serve it with a side of roasted red potatoes).
  • NOTE: If you can't find a ripe mango, you can substitute one kiwi, a few large strawberries and a couple of chunks of pineapple.

LAWANNA'S MANGO SALSA ON TILAPIA FILLETS



LaWanna's Mango Salsa on Tilapia Fillets image

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.
