Preparation

Step 1

1. Prepare the salsa: Section the grapefruit and oranges over a bowl to catch the juices. Fold in the remaining salsa ingredients.

2. Place the fish, flesh-side up, in a lightly oiled broiler pan. Brush the fillets with the olive oil and drizzle with the lime juice. Season with salt and pepper. Broil until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily when tested with a fork, about 7 to 8 minutes.

3. Place a fillet in the center of each of 6 dinner plates; divide the salsa evenly atop. Garnish each with a basil sprig. Serve immediately.
