| I'm always trying new ways to make salmon because we eat it at least once a week and this recipe is my new favorite! The sauce is sweet with a little spice, it carmelizes onto the salmon making it so flavorful. I first saw a video for this recipe on delish.com that came up on my facebook page. It's easy to make, easy cleanup and delish! |

| For easy cleanup foil the sheet pan. |
 |
| When broiled the sauce will caramelize and this is why you'll want to use foil. Easy cleanup! |
 |
| This is the Sweet Chili Sauce that I use. |
- INGREDIENTS:
Cooking spray and Foil, for pan
16 pineapple slices, fresh (4 slices for each piece of salmon)
4 portions of salmon fillet (skin off)
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 tbsp. melted butter
3 tbsp. sweet chili sauce
2 tbsp. freshly chopped cilantro
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp. freshly grated ginger
2 tsp. toasted sesame oil
1/8 -1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
Toasted sesame seeds, for garnish *I forgot to add the garnishes in the photo
Thinly sliced green onions, for garnish
Lime wedges, for serving
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 350°. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray. On the foil, lay 4 pineapple slices per each piece of salmon.
- Season the salmon lightly with salt and pepper and place on top of pineapple slices.
- In a small bowl, whisk together butter, chili sauce, cilantro, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Brush all over the top of the salmon fillets.
- Bake until the salmon is cooked through, about 25 minutes. Switch the oven to broil, and broil for 2 minutes, or until fish is slightly golden. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions and serve with lime wedges.
- *delish.com - cooks one large (3lb) piece of salmon but I like to do individual pieces. I think it's easier to serve, cooks more evenly, and everyone gets their own piece with 4 slices of pineapple.
