Ingredients
- 1 lb. salmon fillet, skinless
- 1.5 tbsp. honey
- 1.5 tbsp. chipotle peppers, pureed or minced
- 1 tbsp. lime juice
Instructions
- Preheat grill to medium high heat. Alternatively preheat the oven to 500 degrees.
- Stir together the honey, chipotle puree, and lime juice.
- Place the salmon on a heavy piece of foil. Season with salt and pepper. Brush the salmon with the chipotle and honey glaze.
- Place on the grill and close. Cook for 8-10 minutes until salmon is cooked through and flaky. For oven cooking, cook for 8-10 minutes and broil for last minute for a caramelized top.
- Mango Salsa: I served my salmon with a quick mango salsa made with 1 mango, 1/2 avocado, 1/4 cup cilantro, red onion, lime juice, salt, pepper, and a touch of cumin.
