Curried Tilapia with Mango Salsa


I made this after a day of baseball and I really liked it. Deedy and Chris thought it was too hot, but it was perfect for me. Not sure if it was hot because of the pepper or curry. I'll have to make this again with less pepper.

I came across this recipe trying to figure out what to do with this can of Curry Powder I have. I found this on All Recipes


Ingredients



* 1 mango - peeled and diced
* 1/4 cup chopped red onion
* 1 serrano chile, minced
* 1/2 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
* 2 tablespoons lime juice
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
* 1 tablespoon curry powder
* 1 tablespoon garlic pepper seasoning
* 4 fresh tilapia fillets


Directions



1. For the mango salsa, combine the mango, red onion, serrano chile, cilantro, lime juice and salt in a glass bowl. Set aside.
2. For the tilapia rub, mix together 1 tablespoon of olive oil, curry powder and garlic pepper in a small bowl. Rub this mixture onto both sides of the fish fillets.
3. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the fish for about 3 minutes on each side or until it flakes easily with a fork.
4. Serve with the mango salsa.
