For the salmon
- 1 to 1-1/4 pounds salmon fillet or other mild white fish

- 2 cups diced mangos

- 2 tablspoons cilantro, chopped
- 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice

Instructions
For the salmon
- Prep oven. Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cook salmon. Season salmon fillet with salt and pepper and place on a foil lined rimmed baking sheet. Roast salmon in oven for 15-20 minutes or until salmon is cooked through.
For the salsa
- Prep onions. Rinse chopped onion in a strainer and shake to remove excess water (this helps mellow the flavor of the raw onion).

Notes
- You can also replace some of the chopped mango with chopped fresh pineapple.
