Serve topped with Mango Salsa.A gorgeous healthy yet filling salmon dish, which is naturally gluten and dairy free, you need to add this recipe to your regular meal plan, it’s so good! Since I dreamed it up last week we’ve had it three times as it’s such a satisfying meal. With a fish spatula, remove salmon to a plate to rest, skin side down, for 5 minutes before cutting.Carefully use a fish spatula or 2 regular spatulas to flip the salmon and cook for about another 3-5 minutes or until cooked through to about 135 degrees F (140 degrees is ideal and fish will continue to cook after removed from the pan).Adjust the temperature if needed or briefly remove the pan from the heat, so the salmon does not burn. Do not move the salmon, until it has cooked about 2/3 of the way up the sides. Once the oil begins to smoke slightly, place the salmon on the grill, skin side down. Grease grill or pan with some grapeseed or vegetable oil.Sprinkle the skin generously with spice mixture and then drizzle with a little grapeseed or vegetable oil and then rub everything into the skin. Sprinkle salt into the slits and over top of the skin.Note: This scoring helps prevent the skin from shrinking up when it hits the hot grill, which can cause the salmon to fold slightly. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut ½ inch deep slits almost the full length of the salmon spacing them about ½ inch apart. Fold the salmon in half with the skin side up. I use a cast iron grill pan, when I cook indoors. Heat grill or grill pan over medium high heat.Make the Salsa: Combine all ingredients in a bowl, cover and place in the fridge to chill.Remove from the fridge, just before you make the salsa or about 20-30 minutes before cooking to allow the fish to come to room temperature. To get crispy skin, place the salmon in the fridge uncovered for about 30 minutes, so the skin can dry out a bit. Place some paper towels on a plate and put salmon on top skin side up.

It’s like a little mystery now, isn’t it? Anywho, I season the fish generously with salt and a homemade spice rub that includes the usual suspects and that really adds a nice smoky spicy kick to the fish, without being too overpowering, but if you like overpowering, don’t let me stop you! Go ahead and pack it on! You can cook the salmon on a charcoal or gas grill or use a grill pan or even just a heavy skillet or frying pan. I like the crispy skin and the added texture and flavor it adds to the dish and I also think the skin acts like a little barrier and helps keep the fish moist while cooking, just like when you cook chicken with the skin on. I also allow the skin of the fish to dry out a bit before applying the rub, so it gets extra crispy when it cooks. I prefer grilled or pan seared salmon with skin. The fruit salsa is made with fresh mango and pineapple for sweetness, red bell pepper, jalapeno and red onions for a little heated flavor punch and texture variation, and fresh cilantro and lime juice to add a bright freshness.
