Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 1 ripe mango, pureed
  • 2 tablespoons chipotle sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
  • 1 cup water
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix the mango puree, chipotle sauce, honey, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to create the glaze.
  3. Place the salmon fillets on a lined baking sheet and brush with the mango-chipotle glaze. Reserve some glaze for serving later.
  4. Bake the salmon for 15-20 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork.
  5. While the salmon is baking, rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
  6. In a saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, coconut milk, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until the rice is tender and creamy.
  7. Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve it over a bed of coconut rice, drizzled with the reserved glaze, and garnish with fresh cilantro.

Notes

Storage: Store leftover salmon in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave.

For the best flavor, let the salmon marinate in the glaze for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This allows the fish to absorb the sweet and spicy notes.

If you prefer a milder version, reduce the chipotle quantity or use chipotle powder instead of sauce. Leftover salmon can be flaked and added to salads or tacos for a delicious twist!
