Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, approximately 375-400°F (190-200°C). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Brush each salmon fillet with olive oil on both sides and season evenly with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side until the salmon is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). Remove from the grill and set aside.
While the salmon is grilling, prepare the fruit salsa. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the diced pineapple, mango, strawberries, red onion, and cilantro.
Add the lime juice, honey, and jalapeño (if using) to the fruit mixture and gently stir until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
Once the salmon has rested for a few minutes, serve each fillet with a generous scoop of the pineapple mango and strawberry salsa on top or alongside.
Garnish with additional cilantro if desired, and serve immediately. Pair with rice, salad, or grilled vegetables for a complete meal.
