Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Mango Puree: In a bowl, place the diced mango pieces. Scoop out 1/4 of the diced mangoes and transfer them to a blender. Add the juice of 2 limes and orange juice. Blend until smooth, creating a luscious mango puree. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Salsa Assembly: In the bowl with the remaining diced mangoes, add the diced tomatillos, chopped red onion, jalapeno pepper, and fresh cilantro. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Combine Salsa Components: Pour the mango puree over the salsa mixture. Gently fold the ingredients together until well combined, ensuring every piece is coated in the vibrant flavors. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Prepare the Swordfish: Lay the swordfish fillets on a plate. Drizzle with the remaining lime juice and olive oil. Season generously with salt and black pepper to taste. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Grill the Swordfish: Place the seasoned swordfish fillets on the preheated grill. Cook for approximately 4 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. (8 minutes)

07

Step

Assemble the Tacos: Gently transfer the grilled swordfish to your serving plate. Top each fillet generously with the freshly made tomatillo-mango salsa. Serve immediately in your favorite warm tortillas. (2 minutes)

For a spicier salsa, leave the seeds in the jalapeno pepper, or add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
If you don't have fresh tomatillos, canned tomatillos can be used, but fresh are preferred.
The salsa can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Feel free to add other toppings to your tacos, such as shredded cabbage, avocado slices, or a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt.
