Mexican Glazed Salmon With Mango Salsa

Mexican Glazed Salmon With Mango Salsa

My big confession is that my husband and I don’t eat salmon. 😱
We basically love every other type of fish, but salmon isn’t up our alley. In saying that, I know heaps of my beautiful community LOVE salmon, so I decided to pop together a recipe that is quick, easy and delicious.
You can also make this with chicken if you’re not a fan of salmon.
