Ingredients

2.5 pounds side of salmon
salt and pepper to taste
1 can pineapple slices drained and reserve ¼ cup of juice
½ cup sweet chili sauce
¼ cup unsalted butter melted
4 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 cloves garlic minced
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro roughly chopped
lime slices for serving

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with nonstick aluminium foil.
Place 2 ½ pounds side of salmon on the sheet and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
Arrange 1 can pineapple slices underneath the salmon.
In a small bowl whisk together ½ cup sweet chili sauce, ¼ cup melted unsalted butter, 4 tablespoons hoisin sauce, 3 minced garlic cloves, 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice and ¼ cup reserved pineapple juice. Pour the mixture over the salmon.
Bake for 15 minutes or until flaky and cooked through. You can broil for the last 5 minutes until the edges are charred.
Garnish with 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro.
Serve with lime slices.
Enjoy!

Notes

Pineapple slices, rather than chunks or crushed pineapple, are best in this recipe. The slices are easy to stick right in there under the salmon. If the salmon is too long, cut the end off, and place it on the side so it can cook, too. If you don’t have any non-stick foil, you can spray the baking sheet to prevent the salmon from sticking.
