Tilapia w/Mango Salsa


4 tilapia fillets
1/3 cup olive oil
2 TBS lemon juice
1 TBS minced fresh parsley
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 TBS chopped fresh basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
Fresh ground pepper

Place fillets in ziploc bag. Mix together marinade ingredients and pour over fish. Marinate a couple of hours. Drain marinade. Grill fillets over medium hot grill for 2-3 minutes each side. I use a fish basket to keep fish from falling through grates. Serve with mango salsa.

Mango Salsa:

1 large mango, peeled & chopped
2-3 TBS diced onion
1/4 cup chopped red pepper
1 TBS fresh chopped parsley
1 jalapeno pepper, diced finely
2-3 tablespoons lime or lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup yellow onion, chopped
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 egg, beaten (I used 1/4 cup egg beaters)
1/4 cup ketchup
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup Panko bread crumbs
20 ounces 90% lean ground beef

Caramelized Onions
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 cup yellow onions, sliced thin
1 1/2 cup red onions, sliced thin
pinch of sugar

Smokey Ketchup
3/4 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add onions and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook another 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.At the same time heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat in a small saute pan. Add onions and cover pan. Cook until onions are translucent, about 8 minutes. Add sugar and continue to cook for about 10 more minutes, until the onions are golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.In a large bowl, mix ingredients from egg through bread. Stir in cooked onions and garlic. Add meat to bowl and mix well with hands. Mixture will be much wetter than a typical burger mixture. Shape meat into 6 equal patties. Grill or broil to desired level of doneness.Mix ketchup and Worcestershire sauce together. Serve on a light hamburger bun with smokey ketchup and carmelized onions.
