Ingredients

• 4 pieces salmon fillets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 cup, diced pineapple
• 0.5 cup, diced red bell pepper
• 0.25 cup, finely chopped red onion
• 0.25 cup, chopped cilantro
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 small, seeded and finely chopped jalapeño

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable bag, then pour the marinade over the fillets, ensuring they are well-coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

Step 3

While the salmon is marinating, prepare the pineapple salsa by combining diced pineapple, red bell pepper, red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and jalapeño in a mixing bowl. Stir well and set aside.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Remove salmon fillets from the marinade and sear them skin-side up in the hot skillet for 4-5 minutes, until a golden crust forms. Flip the fillets and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 6

Plate the cooked salmon fillets and top each with a generous portion of the pineapple salsa.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy your Hawaiian Salmon with Pineapple Salsa!
