  • 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro
  • 2 limes, for juice
  • 2 tablespoons diced fresh red onions
  • 1 tablespoon agave nectar (or honey)

    2. Combine paprika, cumin, chili powder, and remaining ¼ teaspoon salt. Cut salmon into 4 equal pieces. Coat both sides of salmon with spray and spice mixture (wash hands). Place salmon on grill; grill 3–4 minutes on each side until centers of fillets flake easily and are 145°F. Top with mango salsa and serve.

Serving Suggestions
