Saw this on the NY Times web site - The Minimalist. It is excellent on pork and chicken as well as fish. Fast become a favorite in the house.

Section 1/2 grapefruit, orange, lemon and lime, add salt and chopped cilantro and habanero (careful here - use gloves).
 
The original recipe is a bit clearer. No mention of lime, either.

1 orange
1 small grapefruit
1 large lemon
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 habanero or other chili, seeded and minced, or to taste
Salt to taste

Cut orange in half horizontally and section it as you would a grapefruit; do this over a bowl to capture all its juice. Remove seeds and combine flesh and juice in bowl. Repeat with grapefruit and lemon. Stir in cilantro, habanero and salt.

Regards,
Chris
