For this recipe, instead of using normal tilapia like most recipes you can find on the net, i opted for red tilapia because it is not as strong as to overpower the sweetness of the salsa.
Ingredients (Serves 4)
2 tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1 large onion, chopped
a small slice of watermelon, diced
1 orange, peeled and diced
2 tablespoons of diced feta cheese
juice of half a lemon
2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
6 fillet of red tilapia
salt and freshly ground black pepper
all-purpose flour/wheat flour, for dusting
To make the salsa, stir in the tomatoes, onion, watermelon, orange, feta cheese in a bowl. Add in the lemon juice and the olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper. Toss everything together and check the seasoning. Once satisfied, set aside in a refrigerator to chill.
Now for the fish, season them with salt and pepper. Heat a good drizzle of olive oil on a pan. Dredge the fillet in flour and shake off the excess. Sear the fillet in the pan until golden brown and the skin crispy.
Serve the fish on a plate with a few generous spoonful of the salsa on top.
