Ingredients

• 4 pieces Salmon fillets, skin-on
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 medium Cucumber, diced
• 1 large Mango, diced
• 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice, freshly squeezed
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 small Jalapeño, seeds removed and finely minced (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and place them skin-side down on a clean surface.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub this seasoning mixture evenly over the top of each salmon fillet.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.

Step 4

Carefully place the salmon fillets in the skillet, skin-side down. Cook for 6-7 minutes (depending on thickness), until the skin is crisp and the salmon is mostly cooked through.

Step 5

Flip the fillets and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the skillet and set aside to rest.

Step 6

To prepare the relish, combine the diced cucumber, mango, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, honey, and jalapeño (if using) in a medium bowl. Mix well to combine.

Step 7

Taste the relish and adjust seasoning if necessary (you can add a pinch of salt or more lime juice for acidity, if preferred).

Step 8

Serve each salmon fillet topped with a generous spoonful of the refreshing cucumber and mango relish.

Step 9

Enjoy immediately while the salmon is warm and the relish is fresh!
