For Salmon:
- 4 Salmon fillets

For Mango Avocado Salsa:
- 1 mango, peeled and diced
- 1 avocado, diced
- ½ red bell pepper, finely chopped
- ½ jalapeno, fenely chopped
- ¼ cup red onion, chopped
- ¼ cup cilantro, chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- salt, pepper to taste
How to make Mango Salsa:
Chop the ingredients (Mango, avocado, red bell pepper, jalapeno, red onion, and cilantro).
Add a tablespoon of olive oil and lime juice, and mix it all up.
You can also add some salt and pepper to taste.
How to make Pan Seared Salmon:
Rinse and pat dry salmon fillets, then season with salt and pepper and squeeze lime juice over.
Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add two tablespoons of olive oil.
NOTE: If you don’t follow a diet, I like to mix up 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. It will give you more flavor.
Place the fish skin down and cover with a lid. Depending on the fillet size, cook for about 5-6 minutes, then flip it on another side and cook for another 5 minutes or until the salmon gets a beautiful golden/brown crisp.
You can serve it in a bowl with cauliflower rice or just salmon with Mango Salsa by itself.
