Ingredients
  

For the Salmon

Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • mixing bowl

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your salmon fillets will cook evenly and reach the perfect level of flakiness.
  2. Once the oven is ready, season the 4 salmon fillets generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Let the seasoned salmon rest for a few minutes.
  3. Place the seasoned salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin side down. Bake for 15-20 minutes until they flake easily with a fork.
  4. While the salmon bakes, in a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, finely chopped red onion, and jalapeño. Add lime juice and chopped cilantro, mixing until well combined.
  5. Once the salmon is cooked, spoon generous portions of the fresh mango salsa over each salmon fillet and serve immediately.
