This was really good and easy to make. I added some lime juice and onion to the salsa. Served with rice.

Yum! The pineapple salsa went very nicely with the mahi mahi. A definate treat. Thank you! Made for the No Gluten challenge ZWT South Pacific-2011.

AMAZING!! My fiance hates fish, pineapple, and jalapeños. I saw this recipe and intended to make it alongside a milder recipe for him just to try Mahi Mahi. When he saw mine, he had to take a bite...and ended up requesting his own! Perfect blend of sweet and spicy, perfectly balanced. I didn't have fresh cilantro so used 1 tsp of dried instead. I'm sure the taste would have been even better with fresh!

We had this tonight with wild rice and a salad and it was WONDERFUL! Just the right combination of sweet and spice. I will definitely make this again.
