Last week my girlfriend and I went to lunch together. We decided to check out the menu before we went as she is a very picky eater. On the website, there was a section labeled "Recipes". Well, as you can guess, that was my first click. As soon as I found this recipe, I hit the print button. And I wasted no time when I got home to make it. It was Paradise on a plate!
A few simple ingredients and a trip to the fish market, this dish was a perfect weekday meal. It's fresh and fast, and best of all, HEALTHY! Three months into the new year, and I'm still doing healthy! I'm pretty proud that I'm still on the health wagon. Well, If you don't count the muffins I made last night. But I gave some away! That's like cutting the calories in half, right? RIGHT???
Grilled Salmon With Pineapple-Banana Salsa

6 (6-8 oz each) Salmon Fillets
Kosher salt and pepper
1 Cup pineapple, fresh, diced
1 Cup Banana, diced
1/4 Cup red onion
1/4 Cup red bell pepper
3 Tablespoons sweet chili sauce
3 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
3 Tablespoons sugar
1 Tablespoon cilantro, chopped
Preparation:
mix all salsa ingredients together and chill in fridge for at least 30 minutes before putting fillets on the grill. Make sure the grill is very hot. Spray the salmon with a cooking spray and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill the fillets for 2-3 minutes per side. Top with salsa.
Yep, it looks perfect! I love salsa and fish together!
ReplyDeleteYum, this looks fantastic! If I close my eyes tight enough I can imagine being on a tropical island eating this dish!
ReplyDeleteNothing wrong with baking if you don't eat all of it ;) I have salmon in my freezer. I should definitely make this!
ReplyDeleteWe eat grilled salmon all the time. I've got to make this salsa to go with it!
