  1. Lightly spray the grill rack with cooking spray. Preheat the grill on medium high.
  2. Sprinkle the salt and pepper over one side of the salmon. Using your fingertips, gently press so they adhere to the fish.
  3. Grill with the seasoned side down for 5 minutes. Turn over. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes, or to the desired doneness.
  4. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together all the sauce ingredients. Serve at room temperature or cover and refrigerate until serving time. Spoon over the fish.

Cooking Tip: On Mangoes - Check the refrigerated area of the produce section for sliced mangoes in jars. They save on time and are less messy.
