Ingredients

Here's a healthy recipe from Allen Susser, courtesy of the folks at www.foodfit.com

For the salsa:

• 1 large orange, peeled, segmented and diced
• 1/2 large mango, peeled, pitted and diced
• 1/4 cup diced red onion
• 1/2 jalapeño pepper, seeded and diced
• 1 tsp California Olive Ranch extra virgin olive oil
• 1 1/2 tsp freshly squeezed lime juice
• 1 pinch kosher salt
• 1 dash freshly ground black pepper

For the fish:

• 2 6-ounce red snapper fillets
• 1 pinch kosher salt
• 1 dash freshly ground black pepper
• 2 1/4 tsp California Olive Ranch extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 clove garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
• 1/2 Tbs chopped, fresh cilantro

Directions

For the salsa -  In a stainless-steel bowl, combine all the ingredients and mix well. Set aside.

For the fish:

1. Season the snapper fillets with salt and pepper, then drizzle with olive oil.
2. Place a saute pan large enough to accommodate all the fillets over medium-high heat. Add the snapper fillets and lower the heat to medium.
3. Cook until well-browned on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn the fillets over and cook 1 more minute.
4. Add the garlic and orange juice to the pan. Bring to a low simmer, then remove the fish and place on a warm platter.
5. Continue to simmer the juice for 3 to 4 minutes to reduce. Add the cilantro.
6. Place each fillet in the center of a warm plate. Pour the orange-flavored cooking juice over the fish and serve the salsa on the side.
