Instructions

Step: In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, olive oil, maple syrup, lime juice, garlic, and spices.
Step: Add the salmon filets and toss to coat the salmon in the marinade; cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 20 minutes or overnight.
Step: Dice and chop the avocado, mango, pepper, cilantro, jalapeño, and red onion.
Step: Squeeze the lime juice on top and sprinkle with salt, then toss to coat.
Step: Heat grill to medium high heat (400-450°F) and brush grill grates with oil.
Step: Remove salmon from marinade, shake off excess, and grill skin-side-down for 7-9 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Step: Remove salmon from heat when it reaches 135-140°F and let it rest until it reaches 145°F.
Step: Serve immediately with the prepared mango salsa.

Notes
