Tilapia with Mango Salsa

We still eat fish from time to time (mostly because I can't give it up) but it is also a quick meal that is light, but satisfying. Tilapia is a milder fish and has very low levels of mercury. I usually serve fish with couscous or wild rice and some kind of vegetable.
Fish
Tilapia fillets (1 per person or half for a child). Pat fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt, pepper, and parsley. Place fillets in a heated pan with a little bit of olive oil and butter and cook each side for about 3-4 minutes. Make sure the thickest part of the fillet is fully cooked. Fish will become flaky when done.
Mango Salsa
Chop fresh mango and fresh cilantro and combine. Place desired amount over fish.
