Drescription

A vibrant dish combining tender salmon with a sweet and tangy mango glaze, accented by subtle corn flavors. The fresh, tropical sweetness pairs perfectly with the rich salmon, creating a deliciously refreshing and colorful meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup mango nectar
  • 1 mango, diced
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 (6-ounce) center-cut salmon fillets with skin
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Directions

  1. In a small saucepan over high heat, bring mango nectar and mango to a boil. As mango begins to break down, press down on it with a fork or potato masher, to mash it. Continue cooking until mango cooks down to form a chunky puree, about 15 minutes. Remove half to serve as a sauce. Set the other half aside for dredging.
  2. On a large plate, mix together flour, cornmeal, sugar and salt.
  3. Preheat a large skillet.
  4. Season salmon with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Brush glaze over top of salmon, then dredge in cornmeal mixture. Add oil and butter to skillet. Over high heat, sear salmon cornmeal mixture face down until golden, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, flipping halfway through to crisp skin.
