Grilled Salmon with Fresh Mango Salsa
Makes 6
6 (6-7 ounce) salmon fillets, boneless and skinless
2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoon vegetable oil
For the Mango Salsa:
1 large ripe mango, peeled, seeded, and diced small (about 1 1/2 cups)
2 tablespoon red bell pepper, diced fine
2 tablespoon red onion, finely diced
1 tablespoon finely diced jalapeño
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon cumin
pinch of cayenne, optional
salt to taste
lime wedges to garnish
In a mixing bowl, combine all the mango salsa ingredients and set aside. Let sit out at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving. May be made the night before, and refrigerated until needed. Toss well before using.
Brush salmon lightly with the vegetable oil, and salt generously on all sides. Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill the salmon for 5 to 7 minutes per side until lightly charred, and cooked to your desired doneness. Serve with the mango salsa, lime wedges, and salt.

yummy! It is never too cold to grill IMO. I'll try this on Friday for sure and post on my blog. I'm always on the hunt for salmon recipes.
I've only tried salmon once, and it was Bitter! So how is salmon? I might try this one. The salmon I tried was in a lasanga dish at a buffet.
salmon is horrible overcooked, which is how you had it. Just cook until barely done and you'll love it.
Just discovered your recipe site and having a peek into the American way of cooking. All very nice, especially your effortless way talking about food.
Personally for this recipe I'd prefer to leave the skin on the salmon. It protects it and keeps it moist. Leave it on the skin side and watch the cooking process as it creeps up the side for 4-5 minutes. Then at the last minute I would turn it to get those lovely char marks. 5-7 minutes per side sounds a bit long to me to get the pink translucent texture I love so much in salmon.
hey chef
love the site, check it daily, quick question for your chicken roulade video would incorporating spinach require any additonal steps. Im kinda worried that the spinach may over cook and ruin the dish.
thanks again for all the videos they really greata

thanks! ive never tried that, so i cant say... u tell me
This post makes me sad that I'm allergic to fish:( It looks so good & feels like summer!
Made this tonight for dinner. The salsa is a perfect blend of not too hot with lots of flavor and sweet. The mango with jalapeno is perfect. The grill is buried in snow, so I broiled it. As a side I fried some plantains. That was a good choice. Thanks for the recipe.
So glad ! Thanks for trying it.
I need a recipe in which I can use canned salmon. I have 6 cans and I don't know how to use it. Any help will be appreciated!
try our salmon cakes recipe! it's great for canned salmon
I made this with broiled salmon. YUMMO. Salmon, mango, cayenne = heaven for the taste buds. Took next to no time to prepare. What fun the kitchen is again. Thanks Chef John
