Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 cup (diced) pineapple
- 0.5 cup (diced) red bell pepper
- 0.25 cup (diced) red onion
- 1 small (deseeded and minced) jalapeño
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) cilantro
- 1 (juiced) lime
- 1 teaspoon honey
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Brush each fillet evenly with olive oil.
In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, and paprika. Rub this spice mixture evenly onto the salmon fillets.
In a medium-sized bowl, prepare the pineapple salsa by combining the diced pineapple, red bell pepper, red onion, jalapeño, and chopped cilantro.
Add the lime juice and honey to the salsa mixture. Stir well to combine, and set aside to let the flavors meld.
Brush the preheated grill with oil to prevent sticking. Place the salmon fillets on the grill, skin-side down if applicable.
Grill the salmon for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the flesh flakes easily with a fork and has grill marks.
Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a minute or two.
Serve the grilled salmon topped with a generous spoonful of pineapple salsa. Enjoy!
