Instructions

Creating the Grilled Lime Salmon with Avocado-Mango Salsa and Coconut Rice requires some straightforward steps. Follow this guide to prepare your dish:

1. Marinate the Salmon:
– In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
– Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them.
– Allow them to marinate for at least 15-20 minutes.

2. Prepare the Coconut Rice:
– Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
– In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, coconut milk, water, and salt.
– Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low.
– Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
– Fluff with a fork and keep warm.

3. Make the Avocado-Mango Salsa:
– In a mixing bowl, combine diced mango, avocado, red onion, jalapeño (if using), lime juice, cilantro, and salt.
– Gently mix them until well combined and set aside.

4. Grill the Salmon:
– Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
– Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
– Once heated, place the marinated salmon fillets on the grill.
– Grill for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until the salmon easily flakes with a fork and has a nice grill mark.

5. Assemble Your Dish:
– On a plate, scoop a generous serving of coconut rice.
– Place a grilled salmon fillet on top or beside the rice.
– Top the salmon with a big spoonful of the avocado-mango salsa for an extra burst of flavor.
