Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz / 170 g each), skin on
  • 2 tablespoons honey (raw or organic preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce (adjust based on heat preference)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari (for gluten-free option)
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks (about 1/4 medium pineapple)
  • 1 cup ripe mango, diced (use Ataulfo mango if available)
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper, finely diced
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced (optional)
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Salt to taste
  • Optional garnishes: lime wedges, extra cilantro sprigs, toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, sriracha, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, and minced garlic to prepare the glaze.
  3. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Lightly salt and pepper both sides, then place them skin-side down on one side of the sheet pan.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine pineapple, mango, red bell pepper, red onion, jalapeño (if using), lime juice, cilantro, and a pinch of salt. Toss gently to mix.
  5. Spread the salsa evenly on the other side of the sheet pan, leaving space around the salmon for air circulation.
  6. Brush the honey sriracha glaze generously over the salmon fillets. Optionally, drizzle a little glaze over the salsa for a hint of spice.
  7. Roast in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, checking at 12 minutes. The salmon should flake easily with a fork but remain moist inside, and the salsa will soften slightly.
  8. Optional: Broil for 1–2 minutes at the end for extra caramelization on the salmon surface. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
  9. Remove from oven and let rest for 3 minutes to allow juices to settle and flavors to meld.
  10. Serve immediately with optional lime wedges, cilantro sprigs, or toasted sesame seeds.

Notes

Pat salmon dry before glazing to ensure a good crust and prevent sticking. Watch oven temperature carefully to avoid burning the glaze. If salsa is too wet after roasting, drain excess juices or serve on the side. Optional broiling adds caramelization but requires close attention. Use fresh, firm pineapple and mango for best texture. Substitute coconut aminos for soy sauce to keep gluten-free. Salsa can be made a day ahead and refrigerated; add fresh lime juice before serving.
