Mango Salsa Salmon
Looking for a bright, fun way to spice up salmon? This sweet, tropical twist with mango salsa will give you everything you didn't know you needed.
EXPRESS LANE tips:
Try frozen mangoes instead of slicing and peeling fresh mangoes. Frozen salmon is just as delicious and nutritious as fresh salmon; simply defrost ahead of time. No basting brush? Spoon garlic oil over fish.
Personalize it:
Add pasta, brown rice, or the cilantro lime rice from the Tropical Pineapple Chicken and Cilantro Lime Rice Bowl. Mango salsa also makes a great dip or salad dressing—or stir it into mashed avocado for a twist on traditional guacamole.
Ingredients
- 2 mangoes, peeled and diced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper

Directions

1) In a bowl, combine ingredients and stir.
2) Garnish with cilantro. Cover with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and set aside.
2. For the Salmon
1) Place brush salmon skin-side down on your work surface.
2) In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, garlic power, salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper. Mix well.
