Grilled salmon with spicy mango salsa

topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 2 tbsp coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tbsp olive oil + extra for greasing the grill
  • 1 habanero pepper, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced (about 1 and 1/4 cups)
  • 2 limes (squeeze one lime and cut the other into wedges)
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 4 salmon fillets with skin, 170g each (center part), preferably wild

Preparation:

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Crush the garlic clove, sprinkle with a pinch of salt, and mash with the flat side of a large knife until it forms a coarse paste. Combine the garlic paste in a medium bowl with the cilantro, olive oil, habanero, mango, lime juice, and green onion. Season with salt and add as much habanero as needed for heat. Set aside.
  3. Pat the fish dry with paper towels, then season with salt and black pepper. Lightly coat the grill grate with olive oil. Place the salmon skin-side up on the grill and grill until grill marks appear, 3-4 minutes. Flip the salmon and continue grilling until the fish is cooked through, about 3-4 minutes more.
  4. Serve salmon with salsa and a wedge of lime.
