This dish brimming with zesty and fresh flavors has beautiful presentation with its vibrant colors of red and green from the blood orange and avocado. Serve with a side bowl of jasmine rice.

Ingredients

1 blood orange or 1 regular orange
1/2 cup avocado, cut in 1/3-inch cubes
1/3 cup chopped red onion
2 teaspoons minced red jalapeño
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons olive oil
2, 6-ounce mahi-mahi fillets

Directions

Peel the orange, remove the pith and with a paring knife remove the orange segments and drop into a small bowl.
Add the avocado, jalapeño, and lime juice to the bowl and toss to blend the ingredients. Sprinkle the salsa with salt and set aside.
In a medium-sized sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
Add the mahi-mahi and sauté for 5 minutes per side, flipping only once.
Place the fillets on 2 separate plates and spoon over salsa. Serve immediately.
