Ingredients

1 can (20 ounces) unsweetened pineapple tidbits
1 cup chopped seeded ripe tomatoes
3 green onions, sliced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1-1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 teaspoon honey
1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh gingerroot
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
6 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

Drain pineapple, reserving 1/4 cup juice. In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, green onions, jalapeno, vinegar, garlic, sesame oil, honey, ginger, red pepper flakes, 1/4 teaspoon salt, pineapple and reserved juice; mix well. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
Pat salmon dry with paper towels. Sprinkle with cumin, pepper and remaining salt. Place skin side down in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 10-15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve with salsa. Yield: 6 servings.
