Grilled Salmon with Citurs Salsa

This meal is healthy and quick and did I mention super de-lish?!

I love fish. But I hate ANYTHING that has a strong fishy taste. I'm super picky about the fish I cook and eat so if you are not sure just trust me. If I eat it - it is not 'fishy'. Salmon is one type of fish I will not eat anywhere. I will not order it EVER. I have to cook it at home myself. Places usually cook it with a lot of oil when really none is necessary b/c it has a lot of oil already. Anyways....moving forward.

I got two beautiful pcs of salmon at the Ralphs on Ventura and Topanga. My new preference when I'm in that area. The Ralphs on Sherman Way and the one on Victory do not have a great seafood collection. Albertons on Victory is where I will usually go but this Ralphs on Ventura is actually really nice and has a very big seafood selection.

Anyways. The salmon seriously cooks in under ten minutes. So I'd cut up the salsa stuff first. Don't want to overcook the salmon.

-2 Naval Oranges
-2 Medium Tomatos
- 2/3 cup slided up green onions (the long green things with the white balls at the end)
- 1/4 cup cilantro. (I'm really glad I added this b/c it adds a lot of flavor)
- However many pcs of salmon you want to make. The salsa works for 4 pcs. I always cook 2 though since it's just me and the man.
-Spray butter. Regular butter is fine but the spray is easy. Esp if you cook a lot.


Yes that's it.

Cut up the oranges, tomatoes and green onions. (No peel for the oranges). Pour it with the cilantro in a bowl and set aside.

Spray a couple sprays of butter on the salmon fillets and cook over medium heat in a skillet (no need to use oil or pam or anything like that) for about 10 minutes total. Only flip it once. So about 5 min each side.

Pour your salsa on top and wa la! So YUMMY!. And like I said you are not adding any oils or sauces so it's super healthy. The salsa is juicy enough with the juices from the oranges and tomatoes. Literally has about 250 calories total.

The sides I did were roasted cauliflower and broccoli along with cous cous.

The pic has lots of salsa b/c I poured extra on with having just two pcs of fish.
