- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika

- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Mango, diced

Instructions
In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the tilapia fillets dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of the fillets evenly with the spice mixture.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the tilapia fillets.
Cook the fillets for 3-4 minutes on one side, then carefully flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat and set aside.
To prepare the mango black bean salsa, combine diced mango, black beans, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeño, and kosher salt in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Stir gently to combine and let sit for at least 5 minutes for the flavors to meld.
Plate the tilapia fillets on serving plates and top with a generous scoop of mango black bean salsa.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
