Grilled Salmon with Citrus Salsa

Ingredients:

For the salmon:

• 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each), skin-on or skinless
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Olive oil, for brushing

For the citrus salsa:

• 1 orange, peeled and diced
• 1 grapefruit, peeled and diced
• 1 lime, peeled and diced
• 1/2 red onion, finely diced
• 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:<!–nextpage–>

1. Prepare the salmon:
   • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
   • Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
   • Brush the grill with olive oil to prevent sticking.
   • Place the salmon fillets on the grill, skin-side down if they have skin. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the grill and set aside.
2. Make the citrus salsa:
   • In a medium bowl, combine the diced orange, grapefruit, lime, red onion, and cilantro.
   • Drizzle with olive oil and gently toss to combine.
   • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Serve:
   • Place grilled salmon fillets on plates or a platter.
   • Spoon citrus salsa over the top of each fillet.
   • Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
4. Enjoy!
   • Serve immediately while the salmon is still warm.

This dish pairs beautifully with a side of rice or quinoa, and steamed vegetables. It’s light, fresh, and perfect for a summer meal!
