Step-by-step
- Whisk together extra-virgin olive oil, lemon juice, parsley, garlic, basil, pepper and salt in a bowl. Pour into a resealable plastic bag.
- Add tilapia fillets, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- Combine mango, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeno pepper in a bowl for the mango salsa.
- Add lime juice and lemon juice, toss well. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and refrigerate until ready to serve.

- Remove tilapia from the marinade, shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
