Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups jasmine rice
  • 1 can 13.5 oz coconut milk
  • 1 ½ cups water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 salmon fillets about 6 oz each
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 ripe mango diced
  • 1 avocado diced
  • ½ red onion finely chopped
  • 1 jalapeño seeded and minced
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • Salt to taste

Method
 

  1. Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, coconut milk, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.
  4. While the rice is cooking, prepare the salmon. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Brush the mixture over the salmon fillets.
  5. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the salmon for about 4-5 minutes per side or until cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  6. For the avocado mango salsa, in a medium bowl, combine the diced mango, avocado, red onion, jalapeño, lime juice, cilantro, and salt. Gently toss to combine.
  7. To serve, fluff the coconut rice with a fork and divide it among plates. Top with grilled salmon and a generous scoop of avocado mango salsa.

Notes

  • You can substitute quinoa for the rice for a different texture and flavor.
  • If you prefer a spicier salsa, leave some seeds in the jalapeño or add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
