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:
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- 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.
- 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.
- Serve salmon with salsa and a wedge of lime.
