Ingredients
Ingredients for the salmon:
- 4 7 oz salmon fillets
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves zested or pressed
- Salmon rub
- Salt to taste
For the pineapple topping:
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 1/2 cup onion chopped
- 2 cups pineapple chopped
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes sliced
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to high heat (between 450-500 degrees F).
- Pat each salmon fillet with a paper towel then drizzle both sides of the fillet with olive oil.
- Divide the pressed garlic into 4 equal parts for the 4 fillets. Spread each part over the entire fillet (top and bottom).
- Season the fish with salt and salmon rub on both sides and grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side.
- Chop the pineapple and onions, then slice each cherry tomato into halves.
- Heat 2 Tbsp of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Then add in the chopped onion and cook until it becomes translucent.
- Add in the chopped pineapples, sliced cherry tomatoes, salt, and black pepper. Then cook for about 5 minutes. You don't want to overcook it so it won't become mushy.
- Serve the salmon over wild brown rice and generously top with the sautéed pineapple mixture.
