    Make the Salsa

    In a bowl, combine diced mango, red onion, cilantro, minced chipotle, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a jar, combine mango puree, olive oil, white vinegar, honey, and salt. Shake well until emulsified.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, toss together fresh lettuce, cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, and croutons. Drizzle with the tropical mango vinaigrette and toss to coat.

    Plate the salad mixture and place the seared salmon on top. Spoon the mango chipotle salsa over the salmon and serve immediately.
