- ½ small red onion (diced)
- ½ medium jalapeno pepper (diced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)

Fish
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the mango, avocado, red onion, jalapeno, garlic, and fresh cilantro. Add fresh lime juice and season with salt and black pepper, to taste. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the Cajun Seasoning. Stir to combine.
- Sprinkle the Cajun Seasoning on both sides of the snapper fillets and rub in gently.
