Halibut with Mango Salsa (Gluten-Free)

This salsa works well to highlight a variety of seafood. It goes great with cod, swordfish, and tuna steaks, and can also goes well with tilapia, trout, or just about any mild-tasting fish. I always try to take advantage of finding great mangoes during their off-season. When I do,  I often make extra salsa. Fresh salsa won’t keep for much more than a day, but it rarely lasts that long in my kitchen.

This dish bursts with the flavors of summer anytime of the year. Refreshing and easy to prepare, a splash of this simple salsa is all you need to compliment a great piece of fish. However, go easy, and don't overdo it, or the fish can get lost.
