For the Mango Avocado Salsa:

Directions

1. For the salmon: In a baking dish, whisk together olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, garlic, salt, and pepper. Place the salmon fillets in the dish, cover, and let them marinate for 15-30 minutes.
   
   

2. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and brush with oil. Grill the salmon for about 3 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and just heated through.
   
   

3. For the coconut rice: In a medium saucepan, bring coconut water, coconut milk, rice, and salt to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and let rest for 5 minutes.
   
   

4. For the mango avocado salsa: In a medium bowl, combine mango, red bell pepper, cilantro, red onion, avocado, lime juice, olive oil, and coconut water. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
   
   

5. Serve the grilled salmon on top of the coconut rice and spoon the mango avocado salsa over the salmon. Enjoy!
