Method
 

  1. Marinate the salmon by whisking together olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, and garlic in a baking dish; season with salt and pepper, coat the salmon, and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes.
  2. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat about 10 minutes before the salmon is done marinating; oil the grates.
  3. Grill the marinated salmon fillets for about 3 minutes per side, until flaky and moist in the center.
  4. Cook coconut rice by combining coconut water, coconut milk, rinsed rice, and salt in a saucepan; bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for about 20 minutes until liquid is absorbed.
  5. Prepare the salsa by gently combining diced mango, red bell pepper, cilantro, rinsed red onion, and avocado in a bowl; drizzle with lime juice, olive oil, and coconut water, then toss and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Assemble the bowls by spooning coconut rice into each bowl, topping with grilled salmon, and finishing with a generous portion of avocado mango salsa.
