I am not a fish lover and I don’t really care for mango so when my husband suggested this meal I will admit that I was not thrilled about it. I admit that I put it off as long as possible and didn’t know what I was going to do if he wanted to have it again. So I was very surprised to find that not only did I like this meal, I was the one to request it being put into our regular rotation. This meal is simple, gorgeous and delicious! Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
Fish Tacos:
3-4 tilapia fillets
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1/4 cup olive oil
salt and pepper if desired
corn tortillas
Whisk lemon juice with olive oil. Dip tilapia fillets in lemon mixture then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place fish in baking dish and cook at 350 degrees for approximately 30 min or until fish is tender and flaky (In the mean time, prepare the salsa and guacamole). Remove fish from oven and using 2 forks break the fish into small chunks. Heat corn tortillas briefly in the microwave or on the stove. Fill tortillas with fish and other toppings and enjoy!
Mango Salsa:
1 mango, chopped
1/2 cup diced onion
1-2 jalapenos seeded and diced
2-3 roma tomatoes chopped
1 Tbsp chopped cilantro or 1 tsp dried cilantro
Mix all ingredients together, serve.
p.s. If you make the same recipe without the mango you have Pico de Gallo
Other Toppings:
cheese, guacamole, sour cream
layer desired ingredients onto tortillas, bend tortillas around the filling and devour it! Yum yum!
