Ingredients
  

For the Salmon
  • 4 pieces salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (Halal-certified)
For the Bowl
  • 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
For the Salsa
  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup red onion, chopped
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the Grill: If you’re using an outdoor grill, preheat it to medium heat. For indoor grilling, you can utilize a grill pan on the stovetop.
  2. Prepare the Salmon: Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper. Brush each fillet generously with BBQ sauce.
  3. Make the Mango Avocado Salsa: In a medium bowl, combine the diced mango, diced avocado, chopped red onion, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Gently mix to combine.
Cooking
  1. Grill the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, then flip and grill for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Assembly
  1. Assemble Your Bowls: Start with a base of cooked rice or quinoa in each bowl. Top with a grilled salmon fillet and a generous scoop of mango avocado salsa.
Serving
  1. Serve Immediately: For the best flavor and texture, serve your BBQ salmon bowls right away.

Notes

Try using tilapia or trout if salmon isn’t available! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
