Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-8 oz each) Opah fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 medium (diced) Ripe mango
- 1 large (diced) Avocado
- 0.25 cup (finely diced) Red onion
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Cilantro
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 3 tablespoons Orange juice
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 clove (minced) Garlic
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Brush each opah fillet with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a mixing bowl, combine diced mango, avocado, red onion, chopped cilantro, and lime juice. Gently toss and set aside to let the flavors meld.
In a small bowl, whisk together orange juice, lemon juice, honey, minced garlic, 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, ground cumin, and chili powder. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Set the vinaigrette aside.
Place the opah fillets on the grill. Cook for about 4-6 minutes on each side, or until grill marks are visible and the fish is cooked through with an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Remove the fillets from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
Plate each grilled opah fillet and top generously with the mango and avocado salsa.
Drizzle the citrus vinaigrette over each fillet and the salsa for an added burst of flavor.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables or quinoa, and enjoy this tropical delight!
