Instructions

  1. 1 Stir together mango, lime juice, pepper jam, and cilantro in a large bowl until well combined. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for relish flavors to combine, about 30 minutes.
  2. 2 Season salmon fillets with sea salt.
  3. 3 Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until oil begins to smoke. Place salmon, flesh-side down, in the hot skillet and cook until edges start to cook through, about 2 minutes. Flip fillets, remove the skillet from heat, and let salmon sit in the hot skillet until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and top with chilled mango relish.
