Ingredients
  

  • 4 salmon fillets 6 ounces each
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 1 can 13.5 ounces coconut milk
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 ripe mango diced
  • 1/2 red onion finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 1 jalapeño seeded and minced (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Brush the mixture over the salmon fillets.
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine jasmine rice, coconut milk, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.
  4. While the rice is resting, grill the salmon fillets for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and have nice grill marks.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine diced mango, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and jalapeño (if using). Mix well to create the mango salsa.
  6. Fluff the coconut rice with a fork and serve it alongside the grilled salmon topped with mango salsa.
