What I like about this Grilled Salmon with Fresh Tomato and Avocado Salsa recipe is that it' s very simple, yet full of flavor. The tomato and avocado salsa add wonderful flavor to the dish and are subtle enough not to overpower the salmon. Although I love the flavor of the grilled foods, if you don't have a grill, don't worry, you can just throw the salmon under the broiler for about 10 minutes.
Grilled Salmon with Fresh Tomato and Avocado Salsa
Ingredients
- 1 pound salmon
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the salsa
- 1 large tomato diced
- 1 ripe avocado peeled and diced
- ¼ cup sliced red onion
- 1 jalapeño sliced
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt and pepper
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro chopped
Instructions
- Reheat the grill and portion your salmon into equal pieces. Drizzle olive oil over the fish. Turn to coat completely. Combine cumin, salt and pepper and sprinkle mixture over the fish.
- When the grill is hot, place fish, skin side down, on the grill. Cover and cook for about 4 minutes. Carefully turn the salmon, cover and grill an additional 4 minutes, more or less, depending on your taste. When the fish is cooked to your liking, remove from the grill and top with the avocado salsa.
- To make the salsa: Combine the jalapeños with the tomatoes, onion, cilantro and avocados. Squeeze the lime juice over the salsa and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired. Set the salsa aside until serving.

I often just broil my fish like this but never thought of preparing a salsa like this. Looks wonderful.

the golden brown outside of the salmon looks perfect, especially in contrast with that vibrant and delicious salsa!!
