Serves 4; 3 ounces fish and 2 tablespoons salsa per serving

Ingredients
Vegetable oil spray

Salsa
1 medium mango, chopped
1 cup chopped fresh peeled peaches or 8-ounce can light peaches in
    extra-light syrup, drained and chopped
3 tablespoons chopped red onion
1 small fresh jalapeño pepper, seeds and ribs discarded, chopped, or
    1/2 teaspoon bottled pickled jalapeño juice
1/4 cup snipped fresh cilantro or fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
1 teaspoon grated lime zest
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

Salmon
4 salmon fillets with skin (5 to 6 ounces each)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper (white preferred)

Directions
Lightly spray a grill rack with vegetable oil spray. Preheat the grill to medium-high.

In a medium bowl, stir together the salsa ingredients.

Rinse the fish and pat dry with paper towels. Season with the salt and pepper.

Grill the salmon with the skin side up for 4 minutes, or until browned. Using a spatula, turn the fish over. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.

To serve, place the fish with the skin side down on plates. Spoon the salsa on top or to the side of the fish.
