Salsa:

  • 2 cups chopped pineapple
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
  • 1 jalapeño, chopped (with seeds for extra spicy)
  • juice from one lime
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Salmon:

  • 8-ounce salmon fillet
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8-1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • juice from one lime

Preheat your oven to 450 F. In a medium bowl, combine chopped pineapple, red onion, cilantro and jalapeño. Season with lime juice, chili powder, salt, and black pepper; stir. Place in refrigerator while preparing salmon. On a plate or cutting board, coat the salmon with the olive oil. Then season with cayenne pepper, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Place salmon skin-side down on grill and cook covered for 6-8 minutes. Flip and grill for an additional 2 minutes. Alternatively, salmon can be wrapped in aluminum foil and placed on a grill to cook for 14-16 minutes. Remove salmon from heat and squeeze lime juice on fish. Serve with salsa and rice or tortillas.
