Ingredients

2 tsp reduced-calorie Balsamic Vinegar

1 mango

1 tsp chopped jalapeno pepper

1/4 cup finely chopped cucumber

2 tsp grated lime zest

2 tbsp finely chopped red onion

2 tilapia fillets (about 1/2 lb)

2 tsp canola oil

1/2 cup uncooked brown rice

salt & pepper to taste

Directions

Slice mango close to the pit

Make diagonal cuts through the fruit, leaving the skin intact

Now invert the peel, and gently pare off the little cubes of fruit

Finely chop the cucumber, jalapeno and onion

Combine all ingredients as chopped

Add the balsamic vinegar

===========

Meanwhile, cook the rice and drain

===========

Cook the tilapia over medium-high flame for three minutes per side, (I cook with propane gas) in a small amount of canola oil and balsamic vinegar

===========

To plate:

Place a bed of rice in the center of the dish

Place tilapia on top

Cover with salsa, OR place a dab of salsa on the fish, and surround the bed of rice with salsa to compliment

Oh my! That sounds wonderful...I have saved the recipe, and happen to have talapia filets in the, well, freezer (over-bought a couple weeks ago...I do that often, unfortunately, when the fish is super fresh. LOL), and will make this tomorrow night.

Chef, I gave this a five fork and it said I gave it a one. Not sure how that happened or what I can do about it. It is no one fork folks.

We can't use Tilapia since it is high in Omega-6 and it causes inflammation. Would chicken work with mango salsa? It sounds wonderful.
