A healthy grilled salmon served with a vibrant and fresh tropical salsa.
I think it is time to share my easy peasy, ready in 15 mins grilled salmon recipe with a tropical salsa for those days when
- Your mother in law discovers that the local shop now stocks a kilo bag of individually wrapped salmon fillets and gets you a pack to try. #foodbloggerproblems
- When you other half goes on a boy’s night and leaves you to cook for one. #lesstimecookingmoretimeonnetflix.
- When you just want to just eat spoonful’s of tropical fruit with chilli straight out of the mixing bowl.
- When you feel the need to be in the tropics but don’t have enough cash to get there. This is seriously the next best thing.
- When you want to pretend that you are at the Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.
- When your best friend comes to stay, and is on some random made up diet, and the only thing you can serve him is fish and fruit.
- When you need to spice up your lunches.
- Add any other reason you can think of here.
It is healthy, drool worthy and tastes great. What’s not to like? So – grilled salmon served with a huge helping of some mango and pineapple salsa. Go. Make. Some. Now. And please share any images with me on Instagram.
Ps if I was making this in Sierra Leone, I would use a fish like snapper instead.

Notes
This is a favourite salsa of ours to make and it goes lovely with salmon or chicken.
I love adding mango to salsa. It really brings it to life.
Hi Bintu,
We just had some salmon today. Thanks for the easy & healthy recipe! 🙂
Have a wonderful week!
Amy
Mango salsa goes so well with salmon!! Can’t wait to try this one!!
Enjoy.
Mango here in US is not the greatest but this is perfect for those little sour or tropical tasting ones!!
Exactly, those mangos would be great.
Yup, that’ll do it. You have my apopceiatirn.
What is Obama doing to stop the outsourcing of jobs to other countries?Will Democrats excuse him by saying the GOP is “obstructing” the Democrat majority in both houses of Congress?
It looks so vibrant and refreshing. It would also make a perfect lunch to take to work.
I’m such a huge fan of Salmon and the tropical salad sounds fantastic with it. Will try soon.
Yaye, enjoy every mouthful
I agree with you on all accounts! Mango salsa instantly makes any meal feel more tropical and you can never go wrong with quick, and easy salmon. YUM!
Especially today when we have such cold rainy weather.
This looks divine and ever so healthy, for those of us on normal or make believe diets 😉 I am a fan of snapper so would probably take up your suggestion and make it with that, seriously delicious!
Yes please to snapper too.
I’m not a salmon girl, but I’d so do this salsa with a red snapper!!
Oooh, snapper. Yes please.
Love the addition of the tropical salsa to this salmon. It sounds delicious. Pinned!!
Thanks so much for pinning.
Hahaha, all those reasons! Yes! I’ve been in so many of those situations, and grilled salmon is actually a go-to for me. I’ve never made it with a salsa like this, though, and it sounds amazing. Will have to try it next time!
We defo need to make up lots of reasons why we need more salmon and salsa in our lives. 🙂
Love, love, love this! My whole family loves salmon so I’m positive we will love this!
🙂
O I could just live off of grilled salmon! Greatest fish!
Hahaha, me too.
Grilled salmon is so good, and the salsa looks delicious 🙂
