    3. Set aside while cooking salmon to let the flavors meld.

Recipe Notes
  1. If you don't want to bother with cutting up a fresh pineapple, you can buy pre-cut fresh pineapple and dice it smaller for more flavor.
  2. Substitute mango, papaya, or add more tomatoes.
  3. Lightly grill your pineapple for a smokier flavor.
