Citrus Butter

Serving Options

Method

Citrus Butter

  1. 1

    Prepare Citrus Butter

    In a medium bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, champagne, parsley, chives, lemon juice, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and smooth. Set aside.

Mango Pico de Gallo

  1. 2

    Make Mango Pico de Gallo

    In a separate bowl, combine the diced mango, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Mix gently to combine and allow to sit for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld.

Salmon

  1. 3

    Prepare Salmon

    Preheat your grill or oven to 400°F (200°C). Rub the salmon fillets with olive oil, then season with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 4

    Cook Salmon

    Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill or a baking sheet. Cook for about 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  3. 5

    Top with Citrus Butter

    In the last 2 minutes of cooking, spoon the prepared citrus butter over the salmon fillets and allow it to melt slightly.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve the salmon topped with mango pico de gallo on a plate. Choose one of the serving options (mashed potatoes, steamed rice, veggie quinoa, or elote pasta salad) and place it beside the salmon. Enjoy!
