Ingredients:

Citrus Salsa:

  • 1 roasted poblano pepper, charred skins removed and diced
  • 2 oranges, segmented and halved
  • 1 grapefruit, segmented and diced
  • 2 tablespoons finely minced red onion
  • 2 tablespoons pomegranate arils
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro

Fish Tacos:

  • 12 ounces tilapia
  • 1 teaspoons Mazola Canola Oil
  • 1 teaspoon veggie grill
  • 8 (6-inch) corn tortillas
  • Optional, 1/4 cup queso fresco cheese

Instructions:

  1. Combine all citrus salsa ingredients; chill salsa in refrigerator until tacos are ready.
  2. Rinse and pat dry fish filets; set aside.
  3. Heat oil over medium-high heat in a nonstick skillet.
  4. Add the fish and sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon seasoning over the filets. Sauté 3 minutes; turn. Sprinkle filets with additional 1/2 teaspoon seasoning. Cook an additional 3 to 5 minutes or until fish flakes easily. Remove fish from skillet; keep warm.
  5. Place tortillas on a microwave-safe plate and cover with plastic wrap. Microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. Or, toast lightly on each side over a gas range flame.
  6. Divide fish evenly between 8 tortillas. Top each taco with about 1/4 cup Citrus Salsa and 1-1/2 teaspoons of queso fresco cheese, if desired.
