Ingredients

Salsa

  • 3/4 cup chopped tomato
  • 1/2 cup chopped peeled ripe avocado
  • 2 tablespoons sliced green onions
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 jalapeno chile, chopped

Fish

  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 (8-oz.) pkg. frozen orange roughy fillets, thawed

Steps

  • 1
    GRILL DIRECTIONS: Heat grill. In medium bowl, combine all salsa ingredients; mix well. Set aside.
  • 2
    Cut 12-inch-square piece of heavy-duty foil; pierce several holes in foil. In small bowl, combine oil and lime juice; mix well.
  • 3
    When ready to grill, brush fish with oil mixture. Place foil on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Place fish fillets on foil. Cook 6 to 7 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork, turning once. Serve salsa over grilled fish.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    To broil, place food on broiler pan and broil 4 to 6 inches from heat using times provided above as a guide.
  • tip 2
    Fish cooks very quickly on the grill, so watch it closely or it will overcook and become tough. When fish is done, it flakes easily when touched with a fork.
  • tip 3
    Instead of orange roughy, try any mild flavored white fish in this recipe such as flounder, sole or pike.
  • tip 4
    Fish is a great source of protein and is low in fat.
