• Serve the fish with a side of rice or a salad for a complete meal.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover baked fish can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Reheat the fish in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
• The salsa is best enjoyed fresh, so make it just before serving.
• Serve the leftover fish with fresh salsa for a delicious and healthy lunch.
