Unbelievably Good Salmon with Mango Salsa
Report
If you're craving a summery, feel-good dinner, look no further than mango salmon! While it may look like you've spent hours in the kitchen, it's actually incredibly simple to prepare with my top four tips. In just 25 minutes you can make an impressive, refreshing, and complete meal the whole family will love.

Ingredients
- 4 pieces salmon see notes
- ½ teaspoon each: salt and pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 tablespoons mango chutney see notes
To Serve
- 4 cups cooked basmati rice or coconut rice
- 2 cups frozen edamame warmed in the microwave
- sriracha mayo to taste
- 1 handful roasted or spicy cashews
Mango Salsa
- 2 mangoes peeled and diced
- 1 red pepper diced
- ¼ cup diced red onion
- ¼ cup chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons lime juice fresh is best
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ¼ teaspoon chili powder
Instructions
- If you're making rice, start that first. Then, mix all of the mango salsa ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl.
- Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large, non stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon, skin side up, and sear for 3 minutes.
- Flip the salmon over and spread the mango chutney on top. Continue to cook for another 4 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through.
- Serve the salmon on top of rice with the mango salsa on top, and some edamame, sriracha mayo and cashews.
Notes
- Note 1: I love using steelhead trout instead of salmon as it has a mild flavor and is nearly impossible to overcook. It's what you see in the photos. You'll find it next to the salmon at your grocery store - and it looks just like salmon.
- Note 2: You'll find mango chutney in the Indian foods or Asian foods section of your grocery store. There should be options for mild or spicy - choose the one that works for you!
- Note 3: I love serving these with the suggestions above, but you can take the salmon and mango salsa and serve it any way you'd like. Any green, such as broccoli or even sauteed snap peas, is a nice side.
- Note 4: I really like the smaller, yellow mangoes called Ataúlfo mangoes. But any mango variety will work.
- Note 5: You can also bake the salmon. Put it skin side down on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and spread the mango chutney on top. Then, bake it at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 8 minutes.
