Clean Eating Fish Challenge: Sea Bass

 Another mild, firm, white fish - sea bass is an excellent choice for Clean Eaters. Sea Bass is ( generally ) affordable, and is readily available all year round and nation wide. It readily accepts most ingredients you pair it with, and is easily cooked by even novice chefs. This dish has the sweet tang of the mango playing well with black beans ( I love black beans... ) to make a sweet/savory salsa.
