Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 salmon fillets skin-on, about 6 ounces each
  • 1 large mango ripe, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion finely chopped
  • 1 jalapeño seeded and minced
  • 1/4 cup cilantro fresh, chopped
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey

Equipment

  • Grill or oven
  • Mixing bowl
  • Brush for oiling salmon

Method
 

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). If using an oven, preheat to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a bowl, combine the diced mango, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and honey. Mix well and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside to let the flavors meld.
  3. Brush the salmon fillets with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Place the salmon on the grill, skin side down, and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). If using an oven, bake for 12-15 minutes.
  4. Once cooked, remove the salmon from the grill or oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve each fillet topped with a generous spoonful of the fresh mango salsa.

Notes

Chef's Tips:
• For the best flavor, use a ripe mango that's slightly soft to the touch
• Avoid overcooking the salmon to keep it moist and tender
• Serve with a side of rice or a fresh salad for a complete meal
Food Safety:
• Ensure salmon reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for safe consumption
• Store leftovers in the refrigerator within two hours of cooking
