1/2 cup crushed pineapple in juice
1 lime, juice and zest of, grated
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon brown sugar (i used spenda brown sugar blend)
1 pinch salt
1 lb salmon fillet, cut into 2 6-8 ounce portions (i used 1 pound of salmon cut into 4 portions to feed 3 people)
Directions:
1. In a measuring cup or small bowl combine first 6 ingredients (pineapple w/ juice - salt); set aside for 20 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 350-degrees F.
3. Line a baking pan with aluminum foil and then sprayed with Pam.
4. Place fish fillets in pan skin side down leaving at least 1 inch between them.
5. Top each fillet with pineapple mixture, evenly coating the top of the fish.
