Equipment

  • Grill
  • saucepan
  • mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

mango salsa

  • 1.5 cups diced mango
  • 1 whole shallot, diced
  • 1 whole jalapeno pepper, diced
  • 0.5 cups chopped cilantro
  • 2-3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • kosher salt
  • pepper

coconut rice

  • 1.5 cups jasmine rice
  • 1.5 cups canned coconut milk
  • 0.5 cups coconut water or regular water
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 1.5 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons finely shredded, unsweetened coconut (optional!)

grilled salmon

  • 4 filets salmon
  • kosher salt
  • pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions
 

mango salsa

  • Combine the ingredients in a bowl and toss well. You can make this a few hours ahead of time and store it in the fridge.

coconut rice

  • Heat a saucepan over medium-high heat and add the rice, coconut milk, coconut water and salt. Stir, then bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and let cook for about 30 minutes, until liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork, then stir in coconut oil. Stir in the shredded coconut and serve.

grilled salmon

  • Preheat your grill to the highest setting.
  • Pat the salmon filets dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle them all over with salt and pepper, the garlic powder, smoked paprika and onion powder.
  • Place the filets on the grill (or on a grill pan) and grill with the lid closed for 3 to 4 minutes. Gently flip them over and grill for 2 to 3 minutes more, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Remove the salmon and serve with the rice, topped with the mango salsa!

Notes

This dish is perfect for a summer barbecue or any special occasion. The combination of salmon, mango salsa, and coconut rice is not only delicious but also visually appealing.
