Mango-Licious Fish Tacos


adapted from allrecipes.com, submitted by Chris

6 tilapia fillets
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons grated orange zest
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
salt and pepper to taste

 Salsa:
1 mango - peeled, seeded and diced
2 tbsp small red onion, finely chopped
1 avocado - peeled, pitted and diced
3 roma tomatoes - chopped
1 lime, zested and juiced
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon kosher salt



1.Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C.)
2.In a shallow baking dish, combine the olive oil, orange zest, orange juice, salt and pepper. Rinse the fish fillets and pat them dry. Place them into the baking dish and turn to coat with the seasonings.
3.Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, until fish can be flaked with a fork.
4.While the fish cooks, combine the mango, onion, avocado, tomatoes, lime zest and juice, ginger, cilantro and 1 teaspoon kosher salt in a glass bowl. Stir to blend and set aside at room temperature until fish has finished cooking. Shred the tilapia.  Spoon some tilapia on to a warm tortilla.  Add desired amount of salsa.  Enjoy!
I'm so excited to share this recipe with you!  This is fresh and tasty!  We had a little salsa left over so I gave it and some white corn tortilla chips to a friend.  She loved it!
