Ingredients
Scale
- 1-2 lbs. fresh salmon
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 mangoes, diced
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1/4 cup minced cilantro
- 1/4 cup minced red onion
- 1/2 jalapeño, minced (optional)
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- Salt to taste
- 1 1/2 cups of rice
Instructions
- Combine all salsa ingredients in a mixing bowl: Toss diced mangoes, avocado, cilantro, red onion, jalapeño (if using), honey, lime juice, lime zest, and salt together until well mixed. Adjust seasoning if needed.
- Prepare your rice according to package directions while you prepare the salmon.
- Preheat your oven to 475 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Mix brown sugar, smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, kosher salt, and olive oil in a small bowl. Place salmon skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet and rub the spice paste liberally over the top.
- Bake for 6–12 minutes based on thickness until salmon flakes easily with a fork; check doneness regularly. If desired crispy texture is preferred, set oven to broil for additional browning.
- Once everything is cooked, spoon rice into bowls as a base. Flake some salmon on top and generously spoon mango avocado salsa over each bowl.
