Ingredients
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • 2 Tbs Dijon mustard
  • 4 6-oz salmon fillets
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ cup pineapple, chunks or slices
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice or quinoa
Instructions
  1. Pre-heat broiler. Whisk together maple syrup and mustard in a small saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  2. Place salmon in a foil lined 9x13 baking dish. Season with salt and pepper. Place the pineapple and jalapeno on top of the salmon. Brush the salmon with the syrup mixture. Broil for 5-7 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily. Serve the salmon and pineapple with the rice and drizzle with tablespoon of remaining glaze, if desired.
  3. Serve with a mixed green salad topped with walnuts, roasted pineapple, red onion and a sprinkle of crumbled blue cheese, dressed with a simple vinaigrette:
