  Ingredients

  • 1 pound salmon
  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • salt & pepper

  Instructions

  We start by heating the grill. We remove the salmon from the fridge, rinse it, and pat it dry. When the grill is hot enough, we rub the salmon with the olive oil and sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. We add the salmon flesh-side down and cook for about 4 minutes on the first side. We flip over with tongs and cook for another 4 minutes. We want the salmon just cooked through.

• Papaya Salsa [View Recipe]

  Quick View

  Ingredients

  • 1 medium papaya
  • 1 medium pepper
  • 2 tablespoons onion (minced)
  • kosher salt
  • 1/2 lime
  • hot sauce

  Instructions

  We begin by rinsing our ripe papaya and drying with a paper towel. We then cut the papaya in half and scoop out the seeds. We discard the seeds tonight, although they are edible. We peel the skin off the papaya and chop small. We add the 3/4 cup of papaya in a medium bowl.

  We rinse the jalapeno next and dry it. We hold the stem with our left hand, upright on the cutting board, and remove the flesh from the pepper carefully. We leave the seed pod inside. We mince the pepper, yielding almost a tablespoon, and add it to the bowl with the papaya.

  We then add the onion, a pinch of salt, and a squeeze of the lime to the bowl. We stir and set this aside for about 20 minutes to meld the flavors.

  When we are ready to serve the papaya salsa, we add some hot sauce to taste.
