Pan Seared Salmon With Mango Salsa

It is pan seared Salmon again ! Mmmmm this is heavenly , a simple and easy preparation yet it taste heavenly , it satiates my palate :)  I wish I can have salmon everyday  for my dinner  :p  I will not order salmon from the restaurant menu anymore when home cooked ones are so much thicker , cheaper and tastier . Those salmon served at my hometown restaurant comes in thin slices , I can't really get to taste the salmon-y flavor..and  over cooked.  I don't mind paying more if it comes out thick like those shown above :) I enjoy a thick slab of salmon steak and I can never resist one when I see a thick slab of salmon steak. You may call me a salmon woman ...seriously salmon is good and I will never stinge on it :p  The wonderful taste of this fish still haunts me and you can imagine what it is doing to my saliva glands while writing this post  :p

I prepared a mango salsa to go with it....mmmmmm  darn yummy ! A perfect match for the salmon !

This mango salsa recipe is from Angie's blog - Sea salt with food . After all the virtual feasting on the food on her blog,  I picked up this mango salsa from her recent ' Coriander and Lime-Crusted Tilapia fish ' and it was a perfect match for my pan seared salmon steak . Thank you so much Angie,  for this simple and refreshing salsa :)

I will let my picture tells how tasty and delicious my dinner was :) oh by the way, I pan seared chicken fillets for wild boar , gave him a small bowl of rice and some mango salsa to go with it . He is happy and I am happier ,  for I have the whole salmon steak to myself...and  I  s l u rpped  off the last morsels with thanksgiving in my heart  LOL!  I like my salmon not over cooked so that I can taste the natural salt flavor of the salmon  :))

3 or 4 minutes on each side for a not
