Jerk Salmon with Mango Relish
Jerk Salmon with Mango Relish looks and tastes like a fancy restaurant dish, but honestly it was fairly simple recipe to throw together.
Most of the work involved is for the mango relish.
But just a few minutes of chopping and a few minutes in a saucepan and it’s ready to go.
How to Make Jerk Salmon with Mango Relish
For the relish you’ll need two mangos, a small red onion, jalapeno, honey, cilantro, and vinegar.
I find that peeling the mangos first is best.
You won’t lose as much of the mango with peeling compared to cutting with a knife.
And remember to cut around the pit in the center.
Once everything is diced, set a saucepan over medium heat.
First add a little olive oil and then the onions.
Cook the onions by themselves for 3 to 4 minutes.
Then add in the diced mangos, jalapeno, cilantro, vinegar, honey, and some kosher salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.
And cook 5 to 6 more minutes, stirring a few times.
For the salmon, start with brushing four salmon fillets with soy sauce.
Then sprinkle your favorite Caribbean Jerk seasoning on all sides.
Once the salmon is seasoned to perfection, you can bake at 400 degrees or air fry them at 400 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes.
I went with the air fryer because I didn’t have to wait for it to preheat or get out a baking sheet.
Yum! Yum!
