For the Citrus Salsa,

In a small bowl, add the Minced Onion, Red Pepper, Chopped Tomatoes, Chopped Oranges, Chopped Lemons, Chopped Limes, Lemon Zest, Lime Zest, and the Chopped Parsley or Cilantro. Mix together delicately, then add salt and pepper to taste. Mix again, cover and place in the fridge so the juices will leak out of the salsa.

Brush the Salmon steaks with vegetable oil and sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the steak. Grill the steaks until they reach an internal temperature of 125 Degrees Fahrenheit. Top the grilled salmon with the citrus salad and serve immediately. Enjoy!
