Ingredients
Scale
- 4 (6 oz) fresh salmon fillets
- 1 cup pineapple juice (100% pure)
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbsp honey (preferably raw)
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
- Chopped cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and lime juice until combined.
- Place salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour half the marinade over them. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Grill salmon skin-side down for 6-8 minutes per side or bake for 15-20 minutes until flaky.
- Brush some leftover marinade onto the salmon while cooking to create a glaze (do not use marinade that touched raw fish when serving).
- Garnish with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
Notes
- For variations, substitute pineapple with mango or peach.
- Adding fresh herbs like cilantro can enhance the flavor profile.
