Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped English hothouse cucumber (about 1/2 large)
• 3/4 cup coarsely chopped green onions
• 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
• 5 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 1 1/2 tablespoons (or more) white balsamic vinegar
• 2 1/2 teaspoons chopped seeded serrano chiles
• 4 7-to 8-ounce mahi-mahi fillets
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 6 ounces small red and yellow cherry, pear, or grape tomatoes, halved

Directions:

• Combine cucumber, onions, cilantro, 4 1/2 tablespoons oil, 1 1/2 tablespoons vinegar, and chiles in processor. Using on/off turns, blend mixture until finely chopped. Transfer to bowl. Season with more vinegar, if desired, and salt and black pepper.
