Instructions
Roasted Salmon
- Preheat the oven to 425 F degrees. If brining, remove salmon from the brine. Rinse and pat dry. Place salmon on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush with oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Bake until flakey. Medium-rare is 6 to 8 and for well done 10-12 minutes.
- Place salmon fillets on a platter. Spoon a ¼ cup of salsa over each fillet. Serve the remaining salsa on the side.
Pineapple Salsa
- Combine all the chopped ingredients in a bowl. Gently toss to combine. Salt to taste.
Notes
- I recommend quickly soaking your salmon in brine to prevent the white protein from oozing out during cooking.
- See post for grilling instructions.
- For a spicier salsa add additional jalapeno.
