Seared Halibut with Mango Relish and Green Rice

You can use any fish that you like for this recipe. In fact, you can use the relish as a salsa and serve with chips. As for the rice, I always find that I do not eat all my spinach, or herbs before they go bad so this rice dish allows you to utilize them before they do!

Halibut with Mango Relish/Salsa

1 lb Halibut-cut into 2 fillets
Salt and Pepper
Olive oil or PAM

Mango Relish

1 Mango-peeled and diced
1 Tbsp Red Onion-diced
2 Tbsp Cilantro-chopped
2 Green Onions
1 Lime-Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
Tabasco or Sraichi-optional

Preheat oven to 350. Cut fish and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat saute pan and add oil or spray with PAM. Place fish in pan and cook for 3 minutes, or until brown. Flip fish over and cook for 5 minutes. Place pan in oven and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, depending on thickness of fish.

Mix all ingredients for relish in a bowl. Serve on top of fish.

Green Rice

1 Cup Brown Rice
2 Cups Chicken Broth or Water
2 Cups Spinach
1/4 Cup Cilantro
2 Green Onions
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Pepper

Combine spinach, cilantro, and green onion in a food processor and pulse until chopped well. Meanwhile, boil water or broth in a sauce pot. Add rice and greens to the water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and cook for 40-50 minutes.

*If you are using white rice cook for 20-25 or instant rice I think takes 10-15 minutes.
