Salmon With Fresh Pineapple Salsa

"I don't remember where I learned to make this, but I'm sure I must have changed the recipe somewhat. This is my favorite way to fix salmon. The salmon can be prepared in any way. Grilling it is also wonderful! The preparation time includes the time to chill the salsa."

directions

  • For salsa, in a medium bowl, combine pineapple, pepper, onion, 3 T lime juice, cilantro, honey, jalapenos, garlic salt, and hot sauce.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 450°.
  • Place salmon, skin side down, on a piece of foil, sprinkle with lime juice, garlic salt, and cumin, then put the foil on a rimmed cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 10 - 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon.
  • Remove salmon from the skin (This is easy - the skin just sticks to the foil!) and serve topped with salsa.

  1. This is a fantastic recipe! I doubled the recipe and used 1 can of pinapple rings sliced in chunks and about 1 1/2 cups of nectarine. I also used a hot pepper from the garden. I'm bad at measuring so I just kind of threw everything in until it looked right. I didn't have lime juice so I just skipped it. I used this salsa over premade wild caught salmon burgers and served them open face with a drizzle of Tastefully Simple honey teriyaki. Fantastic! My husband said I could make this every week.
     
  2. Delicious salmon and the salsa is wonderful and adds wonderful flavour to the salmon. I had to use parsley, I had no cilantro, but we loved it anyway. the salsa has just the right amount of heat. Thanks for posting, I will make it again.
     
  3. I made this with fresh pineapple and it was delicious! I used Mahi Mahi instead of Salmon (which I personally think it pairs far better with) but either way this is a great quick dinner idea.

<p>Although I currently live just outside St. Louis, this was the 20th move my husband and I made in the 28 years (at the time of our move) of our marriage. Most of those moves occurred in my husband's 25 year career as a pilot in the Air Force. When he retired 7 years ago, he went to work for Boeing and we both thought we'd go back to Seattle and never move again. Boy were we wrong! But our eventual goal is to end up back in the northwest. I love to read, quilt, and collect cookbooks and recipes. Have I found the right website or what?&nbsp; Pet peeves include people who&nbsp;give low ratings but don't say&nbsp;why and people who rate recipes they haven't tried. <br />EDITED TO ADD ON Jan. 27, 2007: Well we're here! We made it back to Seattle after what I call The Move From H---! We had major problems on both ends of the move, but the worst things happened here. Less than two weeks after we moved into our new house in Bellevue, a storm blew through and sent two tree limbs through the roof! Our power was off for almost a week, so we ended up moving back into the hotel we thought we had left behind. But we're back in our house now and slowly but surely, it's beginning to feel like home. And on the sunny, warm days, we remember exactly why we've always loved Seattle so much! Our favorite restaurant (Jake O'Shaunesey's) is gone, so we'll have to spend lots of time eating out in search of a new one!</p>
