oven-baked sockeye salmon

various dates

a. sockeye salmon with pineapple

2019-11-13

I covered the salmon fillet with freshly cut pineapple, baked for 20 minutes & 400 ºF expecting that the pineapple would delay the cooking of the fish somewhat.

The black is burned sugar from the pineapple juice. The salmon skin was stuck to the baking tray, but the fish itself scooped as easy as could be off the skin. I did not serve anything else with this. It was delicious.

Deming, NM people:
You can get sockeye salmon from the Schwan's frozen food truck, pineapple at Peppers.

INGREDIENTS

This is what you need for 2-3 servings:

  • 1 sockeye salmon fillet, 1 to 1.5 lbs.
  • 2 cups chopped pineapple
