Submitted by BeccaB3c

"Easy to make and looks beautiful- perfect for a dinner party. The salsa is also good on chicken. Also consider using fresh lemon juice instead on lime, to mix it up a little!"

• 6 (4 -5 ounce) salmon fillets

directions

1. For the mango-avocado relish: Remove and discard the pit and skin from the avocados and rub the flesh of the avocado with some of the lime juice to prevent it from discoloring.
2. Chop the the flesh and toss it with the remaining lime juice, mango, red pepper and scallions.
3. Store the relish in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
4. For the salmon: Preheat the grill.
5. Brush the fillets with oil and season generously with salt and pepper.
6. Broil the fillets for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, turning only once (Thin fillets take less time, thicker fillets take more.).
7. Placed the fillets on warmed plates, spoon the relish on top of the fish and serve.

Just as advertised: simple, beautiful and delicious. I added some salt, pepper and olive oil to the relish/salsa. I recommend serving this right away as the lime juice immediately begins breaking down the avocado to a "mashed" consistency. Not a bad-tasting development, just not as attractive as chopped avocado. Any leftovers are great as part of a green salad, even when softened. Excellent recipe, Bec.
