Roasted Salmon with Gingery Mango & Avocado Salsa

Prep Time 15

Cook Time 20

This is an easy dinner party dish, as the salsa can be prepped a few hours ahead and the fish roasted just before serving. The salsa has a slight Asian flare to it with the ginger and fish sauce, but not so much that an accompanying side needs to stay on that theme. A simple green salad and crusty bread works just as well with the salmon as a bowl of creamy coconut rice, so take it in whatever direction you prefer.

Ingredients

1 large ripe mango, cut into small cubes
½ medium cucumber, peeled, seeded and chopped
½ white onion, chopped
½ ripe avocado, cubed
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
zest and juice from 1 lime
¼ cup cilantro, chopped
1 tablespoon fish sauce
2 teaspoons honey
½ teaspoon kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
16-20 ounces fresh salmon cut into 4 pieces

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375 F. Place the fish on a foil lined baking sheet, and season with salt and pepper. Place in the refrigerator until ready to bake.
Combine the ginger, zest and juice from the lime, fish sauce, and honey in a medium bowl. Add in the salt and pepper, whisking to make sure everything is well mixed, and then stir in the mango, cucumber, onion, avocado and cilantro.
Roast the fish 12-18 minutes, depending on its thickness, until done throughout (sockeye salmon will take less time than a thicker king salmon). Remove from the oven and using a spatula scoop up the flesh leaving the skin on the foil. Place on individual plates or a serving platter, top with the mango salsa and serve immediately.
