Herb Crusted Salmon

The secret to maintaining a bit of crunch in this fruit based salad, is to incorporate the papaya and mango when they are slightly under-ripe. They should be starting to lose their green color, but not so ripe that when pressed, the flesh sinks in easily. The addition of mild peppers rounds out the tropical appeal. And of course the easy homemade vinaigrette brings it all together. Serve chilled or at room temperature with Chef Irie’s Herb Crusted Salmon in Tomato Basil Sauce.

  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 limes, juiced

  • 1 small red onion, julienned
  • 1 Jalapeño, julienned
  • ½ bunch rough chopped cilantro
  • Kosher salt & black pepper to taste
