Calories 288kcal

Ingredients

  • 6 oz Salmon skinless
  • Nonstick spray or olive oil
  • 1 slice Pineapple about 1/2 inch thick, core removed
  • 1 tbsp Butter melted
  • 1 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup Chicken broth

  • 1 tsp Cornstarch dissolved in an equal amount of water
  • Fresh parsley garnish
  • 2 slices Crusty bread toasted
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat a grill or grill pan on medium heat.
  • Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Rub the top with a small amount of oil to prevent sticking or spray with nonstick spray.
  • Grill the pineapple slice to get dark markings on both sides and it softens. Then chop into small pieces.
  • In a saucepan melt the butter over medium heat. Saute the garlic until it is fragrant, add in the broth and lemon juice, and bring to a simmer. Stir in the honey until it is dissolved completely. Slowly stir in the cornstarch slurry a little at a time until the sauce thickens to a creamy consistency (use cornstarch slurry as needed to thicken to the proper consistency).
  • Grill the salmon on the top side first (plump side, not the flat side) getting nice markings. Then flip over onto a piece of foil wrap and cook to an internal temperature of 130 degrees using a thermometer.
  • Spoon the sauce over the salmon, garnish with parsley and about 1 teaspoon of chopped pineapple. Serve with bread.
