Ingredients
  

For the Grilled Salmon:

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon lemon juice

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley for garnish

For the Peach Salsa:

2 ripe peaches, diced

1 small red onion, finely chopped

1 jalapeño, seeded and minced (adjust to taste)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Juice of 1 lime

Salt to taste

Instructions
 

Marinate the Salmon: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Allow the salmon to marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for enhanced flavor.

    Prepare the Peach Salsa: In a medium bowl, combine diced peaches, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and lime juice. Gently mix and season with salt to taste. Allow the salsa to sit for about 10-15 minutes to let the flavors meld.

      Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, heat it over medium heat on the stove.

        Grill the Salmon: Once the grill is hot, lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Place the marinated salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the grill and let it rest for a minute.

          Serve: Place each salmon fillet on a plate and generously top with peach salsa. Garnish with fresh parsley for an extra pop of color and flavor.

            Enjoy: Serve immediately with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh green salad to complete your meal!
