Mouthwatering BBQ Salmon with Mango Salsa 🤩
Mouthwatering BBQ Salmon with Mango Salsa 🤩
INGREDIENTS
Salmon:
* 1–2 lbs. fresh salmon
* 2 tablespoons brown sugar
* 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
* 2 teaspoons onion powder
* 1 teaspoon garlic powder
* 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
* 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (more for a larger filet)
* 2 tablespoons olive oil
Mango Avocado Salsa:
* 2 mangoes, diced
* 1 avocado, diced
* 1/4 cup minced cilantro
* 1/4 cup minced red onion
* 1/2 jalapeño, minced (optional, to taste)
* 1 teaspoon honey
* 2 tablespoons lime juice + 1 teaspoon lime zest
* salt to taste
For serving:
* 1 1/2 cups of rice
INSTRUCTIONS
* Mango salsa: Toss all ingredients in a bowl to combine. Taste, adjust, try not to eat the whole bowl.
* Cook your rice: Get your rice cooking according to package directions.
* Get the oven ready: Preheat the oven to 475 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil. Alternatively, you can set it to 500 degrees on the broil setting for medium rare with a yummy crispy top – the risk here is that you have to watch closely so it doesn’t burn the sugar. If taking this route, make sure one of the oven racks is close-ish to the top, about 6 inches or so.
* Salmon: Mix the spices and the olive oil to make a paste. Place the salmon skin side down on the baking sheet. Rub the paste liberally over the top part of the salmon. Bake for 6-12 minutes depending on the thickness of your salmon and your desired doneness. See notes if you’re not sure.
* Bowl it up: Pile up some rice, pull off some of salmon, and spoon that mango avocado salsa over the whole thing. Add a lime squeezer for good measure. IT’S SO GOOD.
