Ingredients
Grilled Salmon:
- 4 4-6 ounce filets of salmon
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 lime juiced
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Mango Salsa:
- 1 cucumber diced
- 1 mango diced
- ½ cup cilantro chopped
- ½ jalapeno pepper seeded and diced
- 1 garlic clove mashed
- ½ cup red onion chopped
- 1 lime juiced
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- First, prepare the salsa.
- Chop all of the salsa ingredients listed above, and toss everything together in a bowl.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the bowl in the refrigerator to marinate while you make the salmon.
- Next, prepare the salmon.
- In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, chili powder, salt and pepper.
- Rub the top and bottom of the salmon filets with the oil, and the coat the top of the salmon filets with the seasonings.
- Grease a cast iron skillet with oil—don’t skimp on the oil because you don’t want the salmon to stick.
- Turn the stove on to medium heat.
- Once the pan is nice and hot, add the salmon filets skin side down (you want to get that skin nice and crispy before flipping to the other side).
- After about 6 minutes, use a spatula and flip the salmon filets to the other side.
- Cook for another 5-6 minutes, until the salmon is done to your liking.
- Plate the salmon filets, drizzle with the lime juice, and top with the mango salsa.
- Add any additional salt and pepper as needed.
- Enjoy!
