Grilled Fish with Nectarine Mint Salsa

By Brett Moore, About.com

Here's a great recipe for fish that is healthy yet full of flavor.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4 medium halibut, swordfish or mahi mahi fillets or steaks
  • 3 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 cloves minced fresh garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • **** Nectarine Mint Salsa ****
  • 1/4 cup diced fresh California nectarines
  • 3 tablespoon finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 2 tablespoon sliced green onions
  • 2 teaspoon fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
  • 1/2 finely chopped small seeded jalapeno pepper

Preparation:

Prepare grill for cooking fish over medium-high heat. Rinse fish and pat dry. Melt butter in a small saucepan. Add lemon juice, garlic, lemon pepper and salt; simmer for 1 minute over low heat and set aside. Cook fish steaks for about 5 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork, brushing liberally with butter mixture during the last few minutes of cooking. Serve with a large scoop of Nectarine Mint Salsa.

To prepare salsa, stir together all ingredients and keep covered until ready to serve.
