Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a medium bowl, gently combine the chopped pineapple, quartered strawberries, diced kiwifruit, mango, halved grape tomatoes, and finely chopped cilantro. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the fruit mixture and toss lightly to ensure even distribution. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld. (5 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Lightly coat a skillet with cooking spray and preheat over medium-high heat until shimmering. (2 minutes)

04

Step
1 mins

Sprinkle tilapia fillets evenly with the seasoned pepper blend. (1 minute)

05

Step
6 mins

Carefully place the seasoned tilapia fillets in the preheated skillet and pan-fry for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until the fish turns white and is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. (6 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Transfer the cooked tilapia fillets to serving plates and generously top each fillet with the vibrant mango salsa. Serve immediately and enjoy the burst of tropical flavors. (2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a finely diced red onion or a pinch of chili flakes to the salsa.
If fresh pineapple is unavailable, canned pineapple tidbits can be used as a substitute. Be sure to drain them well.
Feel free to experiment with other types of fish, such as salmon or cod, based on your preference.
The mango salsa can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, allowing the flavors to meld even further. Just give it a gentle toss before serving.
