This Honey Glazed Salmon with Mango Salsa is savory! Seasoned salmon is brushed with a simple honey glaze and broiled until perfectly cooked. Top with a fresh mango salsa and serve with rice of your choice for a short and straightforward meal or any night of the week. Yields 4 serving.
There’s something about salmon with a fruit salsa over top that I only love.
Rich buttery salmon plus a fresh burst of fruit- gah! It’s summer so fresh produce is at it’s go-to and my body truly craves light and healthy meals simply like this. Last year, me and my daughters were obsessed over the baja citrus salmon with strawberry mango salsa. This year, while Pat was away with friends on a golf trip, I made this honey glazed version.
It takes only minutes to prep and cook and is basically a guilt free meal. A summer go-to recipe for sure.
For this Honey Glazed Salmon with Mango Salsa Set out:
for the mango salsa:
- mango
- red onion
- cilantro
- jalapeño
- salt
- lime juice
for the salmon:
- honey
- coconut aminos
- avocado oil
- sriracha
- salmon filets
- garlic powder
- onion powder
- white pepper
Make The Mango Salsa:
In a medium bowl, add 2 diced ripe mangos, 1/2 a medium red onion, 1/3 cup finely chopped cilantro, 1 medium jalapeño (remove seeds and ribs for less heat), a pinch of kosher salt and the juice of 1/2 a lime.
Stir to combine and set off to the side.
Make The Glaze:
In a bowl, measure and add 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon low-sodium tamari, 2 teaspoons avocado oil and 1 teaspoon sriracha.
Whisk until combined and set off to the side.
Move oven rack to the highest position and preheat your broiler on high. Then place a piece of foil onto a large, rimmed baking sheet and spray with a nonstick spray. Place the 4 salmon filets, skin-side facing down on to the prepared pan. Sprinkle with onion powder, garlic powder and white pepper and then lightly spray with nonstick spray.
Broil the salmon for 5 to 6 minutes.
Remove the salmon and brush with 1/2 of the glaze. Return the salmon back under the broiler for another 2 to 3 minutes.
Remove and brush with the remaining glaze. The salmon should be opaque and flake easily.
Top the honey glazed salmon with generous amounts of the mango salsa and serve.
I like to serve this honey glazed salmon over rice and sometimes with a veggie of some sort (like this 10-minute roasted broccoli) on the side.
