Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • Fresh cilantro (1/4 cup, chopped)
  • Salt (1/2 teaspoon, to taste)
  • Pepper (1/4 teaspoon, to taste)
  • Fresh ginger (1 tablespoon, grated)
  • Garlic (2 cloves, minced)
  • Soy sauce (2 tablespoons)
  • Honey (2 tablespoons)
  • Lime juice (2 tablespoons, freshly squeezed)
  • Mango (1 large, peeled and diced)
  • Salmon fillets (4 (6-ounce) fillets, skin-on)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a blender, combine the diced mango, lime juice, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth to create a vibrant mango glaze.
  3. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  4. Generously brush the mango glaze over the salmon fillets, making sure they are evenly coated. Reserve some glaze for serving, if desired.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
  6. Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
  7. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro to add a burst of flavor and color. Serve with the reserved mango glaze on the side, if desired.
