Ingredients

Mango Salsa

1 medium mango, peeled, pitted, and diced into 1/4-inch cubes
1 medium tomato, cored and diced into 1/4-inch cubes
1/2 cup minced red onion
1 medium jalapeno, minced
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon lime juice
Salt and pepper to taste

Grilled Chili Lime Salmon

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Zest and juice from 1 medium lime
1-1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
1-1/2 lbs skinless salmon fillets (about 3-4 fillets)

Instructions

Mango Salsa

In a medium bowl, combine all salsa ingredients. Season salsa with salt and pepper to taste and store in refrigerator until ready to use.

Grilled Chili Lime Salmon

In a large shallow bowl, whisk oil, zest, lime juice, and spices. Season sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
Nestle salmon fillets into sauce and coat both sides. Allow salmon to marinate 20 minutes, flipping fillets halfway through marinating.
Preheat an outdoor grill to 400F OR prepare a large nonstick pan to use indoors on stovetop by greasing well. Remove salmon from marinade and grill on a sheet of nonstick aluminum foil on outdoor grill or on stovetop until salmon registers 125-130F, about 7-10 minutes of cooking.
Serve salmon warm with mango salsa spooned on top of each fillet. Enjoy!

Notes
