Fish with fruit salsa is a great combo. The recipe uses a low-sugar orange marmalade to give the salsa the perfect texture to go with the delicate fish.

ingredients
4 tilapia fillets
1 tablespoon low-sugar orange marmalade
1 teaspoon orange juice
1 medium navel orange, zested, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch chunks
2 teaspoons grated orange zest (reserved from the orange)
2 tablespoons low-sugar orange marmalade
2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
1 medium tomato, seeded and diced
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
3 green onions, both white and green parts, chopped
directions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a broiler pan with foil and spray lightly with non-stick spray. Sprinkle the tilapia fillets with salt and pepper on both sides and arrange on the foil in a single layer.
Mix the 1 tablespoon of the marmalade with the 1 teaspoon of orange juice. Spread some of this mixture over each fish fillet and set aside while you prepare the salsa.
Combine the orange chunks, orange zest, 2 tablespoons marmalade and the ginger in a small mixing bowl. Add the diced tomato and minced jalapeno peppers. Mix well and add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Set aside to allow the flavors to marry while your tilapia is cooking.
Put the fish fillets in the oven and roast until they flake easily with a fork, about 10 minutes. Remove to a serving platter and cover with foil to keep warm.
Drain any liquid that has accumulated on your salsa. Add the chopped cilantro and green onions and toss. Spoon some over each fish fillet and transfer the remaining salsa to a serving dish.

At first I thought the amount of jalapeno was going to be too much (even for this Texas girl) but letting the salsa mixture sit for a while and adding in the cilantro really balanced it out. It was fantastic! The fish was nicely done and I loved that the recipe used the low sugar marmalade. The zest gave it a good orange flavor without it needing to be overly sweet.
