Prep/Cook Time: 30 Minutes, Servings: 6

Ingredients

• 6 4-oz. fillets fresh or frozen skinless halibut, cod, sole or other white fish
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• ⅓ cup orange juice
• ¼ cup finely chopped red onion or shallots
• 2 teaspoons white balsamic vinegar or balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon snipped fresh tarragon or rosemary or 1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon or rosemary, crushed
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• Dash bottled hot pepper sauce

Tangerine Relish

• 4 medium tangerines
• 2 tablespoons snipped fresh parsley
• 6 cups torn mixed salad greens (optional)

Directions

1. Thaw fish fillets, if frozen. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Measure thickness of fish; set aside.
2. Preheat broiler. In a small saucepan, combine orange juice, red onion (or shallots), vinegar, tarragon (or rosemary), oil, garlic and hot pepper sauce. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 to 6 minutes or until reduced to about ⅓ cup. Remove from heat. Remove 2 tablespoons of the liquid; set both mixtures aside.
3. Coat the unheated rack of a broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place fish fillets on rack. Brush both sides of each fish fillet with the reserved 2 tablespoons liquid. Turn under any thin portions of fish to make a uniform thickness. Broil 4 inches from the heat for 4 to 6 minutes per ½-inch thickness or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
4. To prepare relish: Peel tangerines and separate into segments. Remove seeds and chop segments. In a small bowl, combine chopped tangerines, the remaining orange juice mixture and the parsley. To serve, divide greens, if using, among serving plates. Top with fish; spoon tangerine relish over fish.
