Report

We love this grilled salmon with mango salsa! The salmon is tender and buttery, served over coconut rice and topped with a juicy mango salsa. A touch of heat, brightness and fresh flavor! Super satisfying and delicious.

Instructions

mango salsa

Combine the ingredients in a bowl and toss well. You can make this a few hours ahead of time and store it in the fridge.

coconut rice

Heat a saucepan over medium-high heat and add the rice, coconut milk, coconut water and salt. Stir, then bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and let cook for about 30 minutes, until liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork, then stir in coconut oil. Stir in the shredded coconut and serve.

grilled salmon

Preheat your grill to the highest setting.
Pat the salmon filets dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle them all over with salt and pepper, the garlic powder, smoked paprika and onion powder.
Place the filets on the grill (or on a grill pan) and grill with the lid closed for 3 to 4 minutes. Gently flip them over and grill for 2 to 3 minutes more, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the salmon and serve with the rice, topped with the mango salsa!
