Lather your salmon, on both sides, with oil. Mix together your seasoning and thoroughly season the salmon all over. Set in the fridge until ready to cook.
In a blender, add the ingredients for the Avocado Crema. Blend until completely smooth. Add a little bit of water if you want it more smooth. Place in the fridge until ready to use.
Preheat your grill to a medium temperature (around 325-350F). Make sure your grill grate or leaning basket are oiled well!
Add your salmon to the grill and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side. Once the salmon hits 135F, pull it off and let it rest for 2-3 minutes.
Garnish the salmon with the Avocado Crema, Pico de Gallo and enjoy!
