Salmon with pineapple salsa and spicy chile sauce

Salmon with pineapple salsa and spicy chile sauce is a delightful and vibrant dish that combines the rich flavors of salmon with a refreshing pineapple salsa and a hint of heat from a spicy chile sauce. This recipe is not only delicious but also fairly easy to prepare, making it perfect for both weeknight dinners and special occasions.

Ingredients:

2 tbsp olive oil
27g
2 tbsp coriander leaves
2g
2 tbsp strawberry jam
40g
1/4 cup red onion
40g
1/4 cup mayonnaise salad dressing
60g
1 tbsp lime juice
16g
1 tsp ginger root
2g
4 salmon fillets
1580g
1 jalapeno pepper
16g
1 cup pineapple
250g

Instructions:

1. Preparation of the Pineapple Salsa:
1. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the diced pineapple, finely diced red onion, and chopped coriander leaves.
2. Add the lime juice and mix well. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld as you prepare the salmon and sauce.
2. Preparation of the Spicy Chile Sauce:
1. In another small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, strawberry jam, grated ginger, and finely diced jalapeño pepper.
2. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated and set aside.
3. Cooking the Salmon:
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Rub the salmon fillets with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated.
3. Season the salmon with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
4. Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased with olive oil.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
4. Plating:
1. Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
2. Spoon the pineapple salsa generously over each salmon fillet.
3. Drizzle the spicy chile sauce over the top, or serve it on the side for those who prefer to add their own amount.
5. Serving:
1. Serve the salmon with your choice of side dish, such as steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
2. Garnish with additional coriander leaves if desired.

Tips:

- When selecting salmon fillets, opt for high-quality, fresh salmon to ensure the best flavor and texture.

- To make the pineapple salsa extra vibrant, consider using fresh pineapple instead of canned. Fresh pineapple has a better texture and a more intense flavor.

- Adjust the amount of jalapeno pepper according to your heat preference. If you enjoy a milder salsa, you can remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeno.

- For an added layer of flavor, try grilling the salmon fillets instead of cooking them in a pan. The smoky flavor from the grill will complement the pineapple salsa beautifully.

- Serve the dish with a side of steamed rice or a simple green salad to make a complete meal.

This Salmon with pineapple salsa and spicy chile sauce recipe is a perfect blend of sweet, tangy, and spicy flavors that will tantalize your taste buds. With the right ingredients and a few expert tips, you can create a delectable and visually appealing dish that is sure to impress your family and friends.
