Salmon with Chili-Mango Salsa

Remember yesterday’s post about my calorie app?  Remember what I said about fruits and vegetables? 

Really, now I buy as much fruit as I do veggies.  And while yesterday’s fruit salad is a fantastic option, I also wanted to find other ways to include fruit.  Thank you, The Bon Appetit Cookbook: Fast Easy Freshfor this recipe!  It is one of those that is incredibly easy, but looks incredibly impressive.  

I served it with some couscous and literally had dinner on the table in about 20 minutes. 

Salmon with Chili-Mango Salsa

1 10-ounce mango, peeled, pitted, diced

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

1/4 cup chopped red onion

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

2 teaspoons minced seeded serrano chili

1 teaspoon grated lime peel

1 garlic clove, finely chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 6-ounce salmon fillets

Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat).  Combine first 7 ingredients in small bowl; mix in 1 1/2 tablespoons oil. Season salsa with salt and pepper. Brush salmon with remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil. Grill until just opaque in center, about 5 minutes per side. Serve with salsa.  ***Note I didn’t grill mine, I just pan sautéed them for about 3 minutes per side.

Serves 2
