Ingredients
For the Baked Salmon:
- 1 whole side of Salmon, about 1-½ to 2 pounds
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil or avocado oil
- ½ teaspoon Fine sea salt
- ½ teaspoon Black pepper
- ½ teaspoon Smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon Onion powder
- ½ teaspoon Garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon Ground cayenne
- ¼ teaspoon Ground cumin
For the Avocado Mango Salsa:
- 2 large Avocados cut into cubes

- ¼ cup Chopped cilantro
- 1 Jalapeño, deseeded and chopped small
- 1 Lime, juiced

- Optional seasonings: Red pepper flakes, chipotle powder, cumin (add to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with either parchment paper, aluminum foil, or a baking mat.
- Make sure the side of the salmon is dry by patting it with paper towels and then placing it on the baking sheet with the skin side down.
- Mix the seasonings in a separate small bowl of oil over the salmon. Sprinkle the seasoning blend generously over the top of the salmon.
- Put the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12-16 minutes or until it reaches the desired level of doneness (see notes for guidance).
- While the salmon cooks, you can make the avocado salsa. In a medium bowl, combine the cubes of avocado and mango. Add chopped onion, jalapeño, lime juice, and salt to taste. Gently mix everything.
- After the salmon is done cooking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for 3-5 minutes before serving.
- Serve portions of the salmon topped with the avocado mango salsa.
