Mango Salsa on Grilled Swordfish
Mango Salsa on Grilled Swordfish combines sweet mango cubes with colorful bell peppers, red and green onions, jalapeño, and fresh cilantro tossed in a lemon juice and spiced vegetable oil dressing. The salsa marinates to blend the fresh ingredients nicely. The swordfish is grilled until just cooked through, maintaining its moist texture and slight charred flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 Mango
- 1 lemon
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tsp salt
- black pepper fresh cracked
- pinch cumin powder
- 4 green onions
- 1 jalapeño
- 1/2 red onion

Instructions
Mango Salsa
- In a bowl whisk together the lemon juice, oil, pinch of cumin powder, kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper.
- Add the the cubes of mango and toss to coat and marinate.
- Dice the half of a red onion, chop the green onions, cilantro and bell peppers and place in the bowl of mango.
- Using latex or rubber gloves slice the stem off the jalapeno pepper and remove the seed and white membrane, discard. Dice the pepper fine and add to the bowl.
- Toss to coat and allow to marinate for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
To Grill Swordfish
- Preheat grill to 500°F. Salt and pepper your swordfish and grill.
- Place swordfish on a cleaned grill and drop heat to 400°F. I like to get grill marks on mine and 2-3 minutes per side should do it for a tender, cooked through swordfish. You don't want to overcook or it will be dry. We want a moist evenly cooked fish.
