CARIBBEAN FISH WITH MANGO SALSA



Caribbean Fish With Mango Salsa image

Now for something completely different, how about a little Caribbean/Creole feel? This can be done with fish or with scallops and will wake up the little taste buds. Please forgive me, I am not a real recipe follower, and I change it around all the time. Hope this works for you, love to hear about it. I never wrote it as a recipe, sort of a seat of the pants guy. One item to complete it that I may add is Zatarain's Caribbean Rice®, and in this I add 1/2 red bell pepper and 1/4 cup of fresh pineapple.

1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground coriander
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon ground fennel seed
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 mango - peeled, seeded and diced
1 cup chopped fresh pineapple
½ red bell pepper, chopped
½ cup black beans, rinsed and drained
½ red onion, finely chopped
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 egg
⅓ cup milk
1 cup panko bread crumbs
1 tablespoon dried unsweetened coconut, or to taste

Caribbean Salmon W/ Guava Barbecue Sauce and Mango Veggie Salsa image

I'm always looking for a new way to use guava paste, as I seem to always have a good lot of it around. This is a nice twist on the typical old salmon dish--in that it offers a slightly sweeter taste than I am used to. From Simply Delicioso.

Yield 6 serving(s)

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

8 ounces guava paste, cut into chunks
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup sugar (light or dark brown)
2 whole star anise
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon curry powder
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon dark rum
1/2 cup olive oil, plus
extra olive oil, for greasing the baking dish
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
1/4 cup lime juice, plus
2 limes, cut into wedges for serving (from about 2 limes)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 mangoes, peeled, fruit cut off seed and diced
1 red bell pepper, halved, seeded, and finely diced
1 green bell pepper, halved, seeded and finely diced
1 yellow bell pepper, halved, seeded and finely diced
1 large red onion, halved and finely chopped
1 serrano chili, finely chopped (optional)
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (3 1/2-4 lb) whole side salmon

Steps:

  • For the barbecue sauce:.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 1 minute.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add the onion, cooking until it's soft and a little brown around the edges, about 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often.
  • Stir in the guava paste, tomato paste, vinegar, brown sugar, star anise, allspice, and curry powder.
  • Simmer until the guava paste has melted, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Turn off the heat and let the sauce cool slightly.
  • Discard the star anise; transfer the mixture to your blender and puree.
  • With the motor running add the lime juice and rum.
  • Transfer to a small bowl and set aside, or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
  • For the salsa:.
  • Whisk the olive oil, garlic, lime juice, salt and pepper together in a large bowl.
  • Add the mangoes, peppers, red onions, chile, and cilantro and toss to coat.
  • Add the beans and gently toss everything together.
  • Heat your broiler to high.
  • Line a large baking dish or rimmed baking sheet with a double layer of aluminum foil and grease the foil with some olive oil or nonstick cooking spray.
  • Place the salmon in the prepared baking dish and tuck about 2-inches of the tail end under the fish, so you have a somewhat uniform shape.
  • Pour the barbecue sauce over the salmon and cook it under the broiler until the sauce caramelizes and chars around the edges and the salmon is firm and flakes easily, 8 to 12 minutes for rare (the salmon will still be pink in the middle) or 12 to 15 minutes for well done (the salmon will be cooked throughout).
  • Spread the salsa on the serving platter and carefully lift the salmon out of the baking dish and arrange it on top of the salsa (use 2 large spatulas to transfer it).
  • Squeeze a few lime wedges over the fish and serve with additional lime wedges on the side.

1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 whole side salmon, 3 1/2 to 4-pounds

  • Place the salmon in the prepared baking dish and tuck about 2 inches of the tail-end under the fish, so you have a somewhat uniform shape. Pour the barbecue sauce over the salmon and cook it under the broiler until the sauce caramelizes and chars around the edges and the salmon is firm and flakes easily, 8 to 12 minutes for rare (the salmon will still be pink in the middle) or 12 to 15 minutes for well done (the salmon will be cooked throughout).

Tips:

  • Use ripe mangoes for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have fresh mangoes, you can use frozen mango chunks that have been thawed.
  • Add some heat to your salsa by including diced jalapeño peppers or serrano peppers.
  • For a sweeter salsa, add some honey or agave nectar.
  • If you like a chunkier salsa, dice the vegetables and fruits into larger pieces.
  • For a smoother salsa, puree the vegetables and fruits in a food processor.
  • Serve your salsa immediately or chill it for later use.
