Caribbean Jerk Coho with Corn-Peach Salsa

This is a well-structured and flavorful recipe with excellent adherence to ingredient tracking and math. The preparation steps are well-organized, and the flavor profile of jerk salmon with a sweet and spicy salsa is very appealing. There is a slight mismatch in the cost estimate compared to the provided ingredient prices.

Score: 9/10

Suggested fixes

  • Update the cost estimate to 'About $18–$22' to accurately reflect the provided ingredient prices.
  • Clarify step 1 by adding 'with aluminum foil or parchment paper' after 'line a small rimmed baking sheet'.

Issues

  • low / cost: The sum of the listed ingredient prices is approximately $19.50, but the cost estimate states $12–$15.
  • low / clarity: Step 1 says to 'line a small rimmed baking sheet' but does not specify what to line it with (e.g., parchment paper or aluminum foil).

Strengths

  • Flawless math on divided ingredients (olive oil and salt).
  • Prep steps are efficiently grouped at the beginning before active cooking starts.
  • Flavor profile is balanced, pairing the savory, warm spices of the salmon with the bright, sweet, and acidic salsa.
  • Cook time and active time are plausible and aligned.
