Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets ((6 ounces each))
- 1 cup pineapple juice (drained from 1 (20-ounce) can pineapple tidbits)
- 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 cup pineapple tidbits (from drained can used for juice above)
- 1 avocado (pitted and diced)
- 1 jalapeno pepper (seeded and diced)
- 1/2 small red onion (diced)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
Steps
-
In a small bowl, stir together the pineapple juice, soy sauce, garlic, and cayenne pepper.
-
Place the salmon fillets in a small shallow baking dish then pour the marinade over the fish, cover tightly with plastic, then refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
-
While the salmon marinades, prepare the salsa: Combine the pineapple tidbits, avocado, jalapeno, red onion, cilantro, and salt in a small mixing bowl. Pour lime juice over the top, then toss gently to coat. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
-
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. While the oven preheats, remove the fish from the refrigerator. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, then coat with non-stick cooking spray. Remove the salmon from the marinade, shake off any excess, then place the salmon flat-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Transfer the marinade to a medium saucepan. Simmer over medium-high, stirring often, until the marinade is reduced by half, about 6 minutes. Brush liberally all over the top of the salmon.
-
Bake the salmon for 5 minutes, brush again, then bake an additional 5 to 10 minutes, until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve topped with pineapple salsa.
