Not only is tilapia a tender and attractive fish, but it’s a snap to find these fillets in single serving sizes. This Test Kitchen favorite is draped in a spicy grapefruit salsa.

Ingredients

1/3 cup unsweetened grapefruit juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon grated grapefruit peel
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Dash to 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
