Grilled Salmon + Avocado Salsa

Servings: 4

Ingredients

Salmon:

  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 1 tsp garlic salt or to taste
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 Tbsps avocado oil or olive oil

Avocado salsa:

  • 2 ripe avocados chopped into small pieces
  • 1 small red onion small diced
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes quartered
  • 2 Tbsps freshly squeezed lime juice
  • handful of fresh cilantro leaves chopped
  • 1 jalapeño seeded and minced optional
  • sea salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat a grill pan or an outdoor grill on medium-high heat. Brush with avocado oil so your fish doesn't stick.
  • Season your salmon fillets with garlic salt and pepper on both sides and rub each with oil.
  • I like to let my fish sit in the seasonings on the counter for about 15 minutes while I work on something else.
  • Grill for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until grilled marks appear and the salmon is flaky.
  • Meanwhile, chop your salsa ingredients.
  • In a medium bowl, add all the salsa ingredients together with lime juice and cilantro; Season to your taste and toss well to combine.
  • Once the salmon is done cooking, serve it warm topped with your avocado salsa.
  • Enjoy!
