Ingredients
  

Salmon
  • 2 filets salmon
  • 2 tbsp coconut aminos or low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar substitute skip if using sweetened coconut aminos like the ones from Trader Joe’s
  • 1/4 tsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp chipotle chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
Mango Salsa
  • 1 small mango diced (about 3/4 cup total)
  • 1/3 cup red bell pepper diced (about ½ a bell pepper)
  • 1/2 jalapeno steam and seeds removed, diced (about 2 tbsp)
  • ¼ cup red onion diced
  • 1 garlic clove minced (about 1 teaspoon minced garlic)
  • 1.5 tbsp chopped cilantro
  • Juice of ½ a lime about 1 tablespoon
  • Zest of half a lime

Other
  • 2 cups rice
  • 2 cups broccoli

Instructions
 

  • Combine salmon glaze ingredients in a microwave safe bowl and mix until fully incorporated. Microwave for 1 minute, stir, and then microwave in 15 second intervals until syrup-like (about another 30-45 sec total). You can also add sauce to a saucepan and simmer for 5-6 min, until thickened.
  • Brush glaze over salmon and spray well with cooking spray.
  • Air fry salmon at 390 F for 12-14 minutes, until it reaches an internal temperature for 145F.
  • While the salmon cooks, prepare your salsa by mixing mango, jalapeño and bell pepper, onion, and cilantro together. Add lime zest, juice, and garlic and stir. Taste and season with salt and pepper as desired.
  • Once the salmon is done, serve over steamed rice with a side of broccoli or vegetable of choice. Top each salmon filet with half of the mango salsa. Enjoy!
