Description
Lightly grilled white fish with fresh pineapple salsa.
Ingredients
Scale
Pineapple Salsa:
- ½ medium pineapple, cleaned and finely diced
- ¼ medium red onion, peeled and finely diced
- ½ medium jalapeno, seeded and minced
- ½ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- Zest and juice of 1 medium lime
- ¼ tsp. kosher salt
- ¼ tsp. ground black pepper
Grilled Whitefish:
- 4–4 oz. white fish filets (halibut, cod, haddock, tilapia, mahi mahi, flounder, etc)
- ½ Tbsp. oil
- ¼ tsp. kosher salt
- ¼ tsp. ground black pepper
Instructions
- In a medium glass bowl, stir together the salsa ingredients. Cover and place in the refrigerator.
- Heat the grill or a grill pan to medium heat. Brush the oil on all sides of the fish filets and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Place them on the hot grill and cook 2-3 minutes per side or until flakes easily.
- Serve grilled fish with scoops of pineapple salsa. Store any leftover salsa in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Notes
Cooking Tip: Use the back of a fork to gently press the thickest part of the fish filet to test doneness. If it bounces back, it is not done. If it starts to flake apart, it is done.
Substitution Tip: Try diced peaches or mango instead of pineapple.
