Grilled Salmon Mango Salsa (Stampa)

Grilled salmon with coconut rice and mango salsa, perfect for warm-weather meals.

# Ingredienti:

→ Salmon and Marinade

01 - 4 wild-caught salmon fillets, skin on, about 6 oz each
02 - 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
03 - 1 teaspoon grated lime zest
04 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
05 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
06 - Salt, to taste

→ Mango Salsa

07 - 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
08 - 1/4 cup finely diced red onion, rinsed in cold water
09 - 1 small avocado, diced
10 - 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
11 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro (or substitute with mint or basil)
12 - Salt, to taste

→ Coconut Rice

13 - 1 cup jasmine rice, rinsed
14 - 1 cup coconut milk (full fat)
15 - 1 cup coconut water
16 - 1/2 teaspoon salt

# Istruzioni:

01 - Combine lime juice, lime zest, garlic, olive oil, and salt in a bowl. Place salmon fillets in the marinade, cover, and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes.
02 - Rinse jasmine rice under cold water until clear. Combine rinsed rice, coconut milk, coconut water, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes without lifting the lid.
03 - In a bowl, gently mix diced mango, rinsed red onion, lime juice, cilantro, and salt. Fold in diced avocado last to avoid mushing.
04 - Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Oil the grill grates thoroughly to prevent sticking.
05 - Place salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill. Cook without moving until the fish naturally releases from the grates, about 4-5 minutes. Flip and cook another 3-4 minutes until slightly underdone but opaque on the outside.
06 - Layer coconut rice on plates, top with grilled salmon, and spoon generous amounts of mango salsa over the salmon while warm. Serve immediately.

# Note utili:

01 - Take salmon out of the fridge 15 minutes before cooking for even cooking. Do not lift the rice lid during resting to maintain texture. Double the salsa for extra flavor.
