SAMPLE RECIPE:

Apple-Mango Salsa
1 small mango, peeled and diced
1 Golden Delicious apple, peeled, cored, and grated
1 jalapeno chili, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup finely diced Walla Walla or other sweet onion
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1/2 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 tomato, peeled, seeded, and diced
1/4 cup dried bread crumbs
2 tablespoons black sesame seeds
2 tablespoons white sesame seeds
4 salmon fillets, pin bones removed
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cilantro sprigs for garnish

To make the salsa: In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients and stir until blended. Cover and let stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour, or refrigerate for up to 1 day.

Preheat the oven to 350F. In a shallow bowl, stir the bread crumbs and sesame seeds together. Sprinkle each fillet with salt and pepper and dredge in the bread crumb mixture to coat evenly.
