Tilapia is a flaky, lean white fish that is known for its wide variety of associated health benefits including its ability to help reduce weight, boost overall metabolism, strength your immune system and speed up repair and growth throughout the body. It is also high in protein and low in calories and fat, making it the perfect protein for dinner.
With health benefits like those, clean eating enthusiasts use tilapia as a go-to protein throughout the week. It can be flavored a million ways to satisfy your palette.
Meal prepping can be a long and tedious process. Therefore, I try my best to keep the recipes simple, quick and most importantly delicious. Oven-baked tilapia topped with fresh, citrusy mango salsa is a light and satisfying dish.
And luckily, this mango salsa only has five ingredients. Easy, peasy!
5-Ingredient Mango Salsa
- 2 ripe mangoes, peeled, pitted and diced (about 3 cups)
- 1 small red onion, peeled and diced
- 1-2 jalapenos, seeded and diced
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro, loosely packed
- juice of two limes
Mix all ingredients in a small bowl. For the best flavor, allow to refrigerate for a few hours.
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Place the tilapia in a foil lined 13x9-in. baking dish. Squeeze lime juice over the fish. Sprinkle with pepper, FlavorGod Lemon & Garlic seasoning, and a pinch of sea salt.
- Bake, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
- Allow to cool.
- Serve with the mango on top.
