About

This healthy main dish is just loaded with flavor—and it goes together in a flash! The salsa is best if made at least 8 hours before serving (up to 2 days). The fish is prepared simply in the broiler or on the grill. (The Citrus Salsa could also be used with a mild white fish to make fantastic fish tacos.)
