Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons coconut aminos or use soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice about 1 lime
  • 2 cloves crushed garlic
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons Tajin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 4 salmon filets 4-6 ounces each
  • 1 large ripe avocado pitted and diced
  • 1 large mango diced
  • 0.5 red bell pepper diced small
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro finely chopped
  • 0.5 jalapeño seeded and minced
  • 0.25 cup red onion finely diced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice about 1 lime
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt plus more to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, mix the coconut aminos, olive oil, maple syrup, lime juice, and crushed garlic together until well combined. Add the Tajin, paprika, and chili powder for an aromatic marinade.
  • Gently place the salmon filets into the bowl and ensure they are fully coated with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or overnight for deep flavor.
  • While the salmon marinates, prepare the salsa. In a separate bowl, combine diced avocado, mango, red bell pepper, cilantro, jalapeño, and red onion. Drizzle with lime juice and season with salt to taste.
  • When ready to cook, preheat the grill to medium-high temperature (400-450°F). Clean and oil the grill grates. Grill the marinated salmon for about 4-6 minutes on each side, until flaky and cooked through.
