Salmon with Mango Avocado Salsa

My mom is a master griller. She knows how to work a grill better than anyone! She's especially good at grilling fish, which is hard to prepare in and of itself. This recipe is one of my favorites of hers. Unfortunately, I don't grill, at least not to my mom's level of expertise. I use a broiler instead. Really not the same effect, but it allows me to make her almost famous salmon with mango avocado salsa!
 Salmon with Mango Avocado Salsa

  • 4 salmon fillets, skin on
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper powder
  • 1/2 cup diced avocado
  • 1/2 cup diced mango
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice

Combine coriander, paprika, salt and red pepper in a small bowl. Mix well.

Place salmon fillets in foil and brush with olive oil. Sprinkle with 2 1/2 teaspoons spice mix. Wrap salmon in foil and place on grill (or under broiler). Cook approximately 8 minutes.

To make the salsa, mix avocado, mango, cilantro, lime juice and reserve spice mixture.

Top salmon with salsa, and enjoy!
