This delicious wild salmon with mango salsa is a go-to in my kitchen. Ready in under 15 minutes, it’s perfect for a weeknight, despite the fact it’s fancy enough for a dinner party.
NOTES:
It’s important to choose wild salmon over farmed. Farmed salmon is not a health food. I typically get it from Whole Foods, or you can buy frozen in bulk from an online source like Vital Choices. If using frozen (which is a great and economical choice!) be sure to that completely by letting it sit in refrigerator overnight or using this quick thaw method using a bowl of cold water.

- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the salmon on the baking sheet, and squeeze a quarter of a lemon over each filet. Top with a pinch of pink salt and black pepper. Once the oven has reached the right temperature, bake for 12-15 minutes, until thoroughly cooked.
- While the salmon cooks, in a large bowl, toss all of the mango salsa ingredients together until thoroughly combined.
- When salmon is done, remove to a serving plate, and top with mango salsa.
