Pineapple Sweet Chili Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
• Cut pineapple in half lengthwise, cutting from root through the leaves.
• Hollow out the pineapple by slicing around the perimeter, leaving a ½ inch (1 ¼ cm) border.
• Slice the pineapple inside the cut border, and scoop out with a spoon. Repeat with the other half and set aside, as this will be the serving bowl for the salmon.
• Add pineapple and water to a blender and blend until smooth.
• Pour the pineapple purée into a saucepan over medium heat.
• Add the sugar, rice wine vinegar, chile flakes, salt, and garlic to the pan and bring to a simmer. Stir frequently until sauce becomes lighter in color and slightly thickens.
• In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch with the water to make a slurry. Add the slurry to the sauce and until sauce has thickened, 4-7 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Place the salmon on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and cover each fillet with the sauce.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes, depending on your desired doneness.
• Serve the salmon the pineapple bowls over rice with more pineapple sweet chile sauce on the side.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat broiler, with rack in top position. Cook rice according to package instructions. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together maple syrup and cayenne pepper. Season salmon with salt and pepper. Spray a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray, arrange salmon and pineapple in a single layer, and brush with half the maple syrup glaze. Broil until salmon is cooked through, 8 to 11 minutes, brushing salmon and pineapple with glaze halfway through. Cut pineapple into chunks. Add cilantro to rice and fluff with a fork. Serve rice with salmon, pineapple, and lime wedges, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the crock pot to high.
• Lightly rinse salmon, set aside.
• Stir together the chile, garlic, brown sugar, soy, lime zest & juice and chili sauce.
• Place salmon in the crock pot and pour the sauce over the top.
• Cover, reduce heat to low and cook for 2-3 hours.
• If you want a stickier glaze, pour the cooking liquid into a small saucepan, add the honey and boil for 3 minutes.
• Garnish with cilantro and lime wedges and serve.

Steps:

• Combine pineapple juice and 4 Tbs. lemon juice. Add in the salmon filets, cover and leave in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes, but no longer than 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment or foil and spray with cooking oil.
• Make a rub by combining in a bowl the brown sugar, chili powder, lemon zest, cumin, sea salt, and cinnamon. Reserve a tablespoon of rub.
• Remove the filets from the marinade (reserve marinade and add the reserved rub) and rub all sides generously with the brown sugar rub. I usually have just enough rub to do this, but you may find you need more or less rub depending on the size of the filets.
• Place the salmon filets on the prepared baking sheet and place in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the fish flakes nicely. After removing from oven, allow to sit for 5 minutes.
• While the salmon is baking and resting, make the sauce. Melt butter in a saucepan and add flour, sauteeing until all the mixture is well blended. Slowly whisk in the reserved marinade and rub. Allow to simmer gently until thickened. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
• Serve with fat rice and steamed or sauteed spinach with the sauce on the side.
• I understand that this salmon could be cooked on the grill, but I've never done this!

Steps:

• Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Coat both sides of salmon fillets with cooking spray and add to the hot pan. Cook for 4 minutes. Flip, cover, and cook for 4 minutes more.
• Whisk water, crushed pineapple, and 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce together in a bowl. Pour sauce over salmon; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 2 minutes.
• Stir pineapple preserves, chili sauce, and remaining 2 teaspoons teriyaki sauce together. Spoon evenly over salmon, cover, and remove from heat. Let stand for 1 to 2 minutes.
