This flavor-packed grilled salmon with mango lime salsa is the kind of meal you remember for days. Decadent and slightly exotic, it's actually SO easy you can whip it up in no time! Perfect for summer cookouts with guests!

This is a sponsored post. I received samples of Cedar Bay Grilling Co.'s wonderful planked salmon fillets so that I could create this recipe. Click here to learn more.

My entire family loves salmon. It's hands-down our favorite type of fish, and since it's packed with those great Omega-3's and other powerful health benefits, I try to include it on our menu regularly.

The thing is, I tend to get stuck in a rut, and prepare it in pretty much the same way each time. 🙈 Where's the fun in that?

So when I was invited to participate in Cedar Bay Grilling Company's Blogger Recipe Challenge, I knew it was the kick I needed to get more creative and add a little exotic excitement to my salmon game!

Inspired by the fresh, bright flavors of the Caribbean, I knew I wanted to create a salmon recipe that could make me close my eyes and imagine myself dining in seaside kitchen, with a warm Island breeze in my hair.

My goal was also to create a condiment that would complement the quality of the exquisite fillet I was cooking, without smothering it.

It would be a crime to cover up the delicate flavors of salmon, cedar (from cooking it on the aromatic plank it comes with), as well as the perfect sugar & spice mix that it comes encrusted with.

This is a gorgeous and flavorful cut of salmon in its own right, and I wanted to add to that, not take away from it!

I decided on creating a rich mango salsa with buttery avocados and plenty of tangy fresh lime juice. It took a couple of iterations to really get the flavors just right for perfectly complementing a heavenly fillet of cedar-planked salmon.

While many mango salsa recipes call for the addition of fresh hot peppers, in this particular recipe, I actually prefer leaving out the 'heat'. I find it more conducive to relishing the nuances of all the fresh flavors and textures here.

That said - if you can't imagine salsa without a bit of heat, don't shy away from adding a minced chili or jalapeño.

Don't have a grill? No problem! This heavenly salmon can be cooked the same way in your oven. Preheat oven to 425°. Place salmon on plank directly on the center rack (you'll want a drip pan on the rack below.) Salmon is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 158°.
