Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) Salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large (diced) Fresh mango
- 1 small (diced) Red bell pepper
- 0.25 cup (finely chopped) Red onion
- 0.25 cup (chopped) Fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 small (seeded and finely diced) Jalapeño
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375–400°F). Clean the grates and oil them lightly to prevent sticking.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and place them on a large plate or tray.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Brush this mixture generously over both sides of the salmon fillets.
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the preheated grill. Close the lid and grill for 6–8 minutes, depending on thickness. Flip the fillets carefully and cook for an additional 3–5 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
While the salmon is grilling, prepare the mango salsa. In a medium mixing bowl, combine diced mango, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and jalapeño. Toss everything together until well mixed. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for 2–3 minutes.
Serve the grilled salmon on plates and top each fillet with a generous scoop of mango salsa. Enjoy immediately.
