Instructions

  1. Prepare the fish
    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush both sides with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Bake the fish
    Place the fish in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is opaque throughout. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of your fillets.
  3. Prepare the citrus salsa
    While the fish is baking, combine the diced orange, grapefruit, lime juice, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, honey, garlic, and remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium bowl. Stir gently to combine and season with a pinch of salt to taste.
  4. Rest the fish
    Once the fish is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes. This helps the juices redistribute and ensures the fish remains moist.
  5. Serve
    Transfer the fish fillets to serving plates and spoon the citrus salsa generously over the top. Serve immediately with your choice of side dish, such as steamed rice or roasted vegetables.
