Steps:
- Preheat the broiler to high. Soak onion in a bowl of very cold water.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the lime juice, honey, 2 teaspoons of oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- Trim the top and bottom off the grapefruit to expose the inner fruit. Following the curve of the fruit cut off the skin and white pith. Cut the segments free from the membrane and add to the dressing. Repeat with the oranges. (For help with this, see our Video demo of segmenting an orange.) Add the jalapeno, jicama, and fresh coriander to the citrus mixture. Drain the onions and stir to combine evenly.
- Position a broiler pan about 6 inches from the broiler and preheat. Lightly brush the salmon with the olive oil. Sprinkle top of the fish with the chili powder and season with salt, to taste. Carefully lay fish, skin-side down, on the hot broiler pan. Broil the fish until just firm and brown, about 7 minutes. Remove pan from the broiler; set the salmon aside on the hot pan to finish cooking, about 5 minutes more.
- Divide the fish among plates and serve with the salsa and tortillas.

Tips:
- Choose the right salmon. Look for wild-caught salmon that is fresh or frozen. Avoid farmed salmon, as it is often lower in quality and may contain more contaminants.
- Make sure the salmon is properly cooked. Salmon should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. This will ensure that the fish is safe to eat and that it has a flaky, moist texture.
- Use a good quality chili rub. The chili rub is what will give the salmon its flavor, so it is important to use a good quality rub. Look for a rub that is made with fresh, flavorful spices.
- Don't skimp on the salsa. The cilantro-avocado salsa is a delicious and refreshing complement to the chili-rubbed salmon. Be sure to make plenty of salsa so that you have enough for everyone.
- Serve the salmon with your favorite sides. Chili-rubbed salmon can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
Conclusion:
Chili-rubbed salmon with cilantro-avocado salsa is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chili rub gives the salmon a smoky, flavorful crust, while the salsa adds a refreshing and creamy touch. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends!
