Honey Pineapple Jalapeño Salmon

Ingredients:

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

1/2 cup fresh pineapple, diced

1-2 jalapeños, seeded and finely chopped (adjust based on spice preference)

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons lime juice

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

▪️Prepare the Marinade:

In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Add the diced pineapple and chopped jalapeños, mixing well.

▪️Marinate the Salmon:

Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour half of the marinade over the salmon, reserving the other half for basting.

Let the salmon marinate in the fridge for 15-30 minutes.

▪️Cook the Salmon:

Preheat your grill or a large skillet over medium heat.

Remove the salmon from the marinade and grill or pan-sear each fillet for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

▪️Baste and Serve:

While cooking, baste the salmon with the reserved marinade for extra flavor.

Once cooked, garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.

▪️Serve :

Serve the honey pineapple jalapeño salmon with your favorite sides, such as rice, grilled vegetables, or a fresh salad.
