Tips For Making Grilled Salmon with Avocado Salsa:

  • Choose the freshest salmon you can find. Fresh salmon will have a bright pink color and a firm texture. Avoid salmon that is grayish or has a slimy texture.
  • If you are using frozen salmon, thaw it completely before cooking. You can thaw salmon in the refrigerator overnight or by placing it in a bowl of cold water for about 30 minutes.
  • Season the salmon with salt and pepper before grilling. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Grill the salmon over medium heat for about 8-10 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through. The salmon is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork.
  • Make the avocado salsa while the salmon is grilling. This will give the flavors time to meld together.
  • Serve the grilled salmon with the avocado salsa and your favorite sides. Some popular sides for grilled salmon include roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa.

Conclusion:

Grilled salmon with avocado salsa is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the avocado salsa is a refreshing and flavorful accompaniment. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
