Jerk Salmon and Mango Dressing

Fancy Caribbean meals don't have to be hard. Here's a quick and simple recipe to add some flair to a meal and any occasion.

Ingredients:

  • 2 heaped tbsp Jamaican jerk paste
  • 2 tbsp clear honey
  • 4 salmon fillet
  • juice 2 limes
  • ½ red cabbage, core removed, thinly sliced
  • 1 firm but ripe mango, skin removed, thinly sliced
  • 1 red pepper, thinly sliced
  • 6 onions thinly sliced on an angle
  • small bunch coriander, leaves picked

Cooking:

  1. Heat the grill to medium-high.
  2. Mix the jerk seasoning and 1 tbsp honey together in a medium bowl.
  3. Put salmon fillets on a foil-lined baking tray and brush mixture all over them.
  4. Cook on the top shelf for 8-10 mins or until cooked through. (move the tray down a shelf if the salmon starts getting too caramelized)
  5. Put the rest of the honey, lime juice and some seasoning in a large bowl and mix together.
  6. Add red cabbage, mango, pepper, onions and coriander, and toss through the dressing.
  7. Serve the salmon on a pile of the salad, slaw, or rice.
Jerk Salmon can be served alone, chopped with mango dressing and rice or salad in a bowl for a festive summer twist.
