Ingredients
  

Strawberry Salsa

  • 12 oz Cherry Tomatoes, cut in half
  • 1 Avocado, diced
  • 1/4 cup Green Onions, slices use white and green part
  • 1 cup Strawberries, cut into chunks
  • 1 1/2 tbsp Parsley, minced
  • 1/2 tsp Salt regular table salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
  • 3 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tbsp Honey

Salmon Fillets

  • 4 Salmon Fillets, skin on
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
  • 2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat the oven to 400°F.
  • To a medium size bowl add the cherry tomatoes, avocado, green onions, strawberries and parsley. Stir to combine.
  • Sprinkle the mixture with salt and pepper.
  • Add the olive oil, lemon juice, and honey. Mix well. Taste and adjust adding extra salt if needed. Then set it aside.
  • Pat dry the salmon fillets and sprinkle the tops with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large oven proof skillet then place the salmon fillet skin side down onto the skillet. Be careful the oil can splatter a bit.
  • Let the salmon cook for 2-3 minutes so the skin gets crispy, then transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until it flakes easily with a fork (135°F-145°F).
  • Remove the salmon to a plate and serve with the strawberry salsa.

Notes

Keep in mind that if you are using wild caught salmon, the cook time is very short as they are not very thick. You may be able to just cook it on the stovetop
