Ingredients

2 cups diced fresh or frozen (thawed) mango (~2 medium mangoes worth)
1 cup diced red bell pepper
1 small jalapeño, seeded and minced
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/2 cup packed cilantro leaves, chopped
Juice and zest of 1 lime
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
Avocado or coconut oil, for oiling grill grates
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon cumin powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
4 wild caught salmon filets, 6-8 ounces each
Lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

Combine all the mango salsa ingredients in a medium-size bowl, tossing well to mix. Taste, and then add additional salt as needed. Store in the fridge while you prepare the salmon.
Preheat an outdoor grill or a grill pan to medium-high. Oil the grill grates or grill pan liberally.
Combine the garlic powder, cumin, sea salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Rub the mixture liberally over the salmon fillets.
Grill the salmon filets over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side (thicker filets might need a minute or two longer), or until the fish is flaky and opaque.
Serve immediately, topped with the salsa and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.

Ingredients

4 (6 oz) skinless salmon fillets
3 Tbsp olive oil, (plus more for grill)
2 tsp lime zest
3 Tbsp fresh lime juice
3 cloves garlic, (crushed)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, (to taste)
1 1/2 cups Zico Coconut Water
1 1/4 cups canned coconut milk
1 1/2 cups jasmine rice, (rinsed well and drained well)
1/2 tsp salt
1 large mango, (peeled and diced)
3/4 cup chopped red bell pepper ((1/2 large))
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/3 cup chopped red onion, (rinsed under water and drained)
1 large avocado, (peeled and diced)
1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp Zico Coconut Water
Salt and pepper, (to taste)

Steps:

In an 11x7-inch baking dish whisk together olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, garlic and season with salt and pepper to taste (a fair amount of each).
Place salmon in baking dish, cover and allow to marinate in refrigerator 15 - 30 minutes, then flip salmon to opposite side and allow to marinate 15 - 30 minutes longer. Preheat a grill over medium-high heat during last 10 minutes of marinating.
Brush grill grates with oil. Place salmon on grill and grill about 3 minutes per side or until just cooked through (turn carefully as the salmon will be fragile).
While salmon is marinating prepare coconut rice. In a medium saucepan bring coconut water, coconut milk, rice and salt to a full boil.
Cover and simmer until liquid has been absorbed (there may be just a little bit of excess liquid in center which you can drain off), about 20 minutes. Fluff with a fork, then let rest 5 minutes.
While the salmon is grilling prepare salsa. In a medium bowl toss together mango, bell pepper, cilantro, red onion, avocado, lime juice, olive oil and coconut water. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve salmon warm with coconut rice top with avocado mango salsa.
