    Spiced Salmon with Mango Salsa

    Ingredients

    • 1 mango
    • 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro
    • 2 limes, for juice
    • 2 tablespoons diced fresh red onions
    • 1 tablespoon agave nectar (or honey)
    • ½ teaspoon kosher salt, divided
    • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
    • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
    • ½ teaspoon chili powder
    • 1 lb sockeye (or coho) salmon fillet, skin removed
    • Cooking spray

    Steps

      1. Preheat grill (or grill pan) on medium. Cut mango sides away from pit, scoop out flesh, and cut into ¼-inch cubes (1 cup). Chop cilantro. Juice limes (1 ½ tablespoons). Combine mangos, onions, cilantro, lime juice, agave, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
      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.

      Chef's Tip: To bake, preheat oven to 400°F and bake salmon 8–10 minutes until centers of fillets flake easily and are 145°F.

    Serving Suggestions

    • Complete your meal with fresh salad blend and sugar-free pudding for dessert.
