- Total Time: 25 minutes
- Yield: 4 servings 1x
Ingredients
- 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 mango, peeled and cubed
- 1 clove garlic
- 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- ½ cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- Chopped mango and green onions for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray 9 x 13-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place the salmon in the pan, cover with aluminum foil and bake for 15-17 minutes, until the salmon is opaque in the center. (I like to remove the aluminum foil the last few minutes of baking, to brown the tops of the salmon.)
- While the salmon is baking, place mango, garlic, chipotle peppers, ketchup, brown sugar, and rice wine vinegar in a food processor. Pulse until sauce is smooth.
- Spread about 1-2 tablespoons of sauce over each baked salmon. Garnish with chopped mango and green onions, if desired.
- Salt and pepper to taste.
