Description
A delicious and crispy salmon dish glazed with honey and topped with fresh pineapple, perfect for a delightful meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
- 1 cup fresh pineapple, diced
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
- Lime wedges (for serving)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt until well combined.
- Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the honey mixture generously over the top of each fillet.
- Scatter the diced pineapple around the salmon on the baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through.
- For extra crispiness, switch the oven to broil for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the honey mixture.
- Serve over a bed of rice or quinoa for a complete meal, or pair with steamed vegetables for a lighter option.
