GRILLED FISH ON PINEAPPLE PLANKS WITH SPICY PINEAPPLE SALSA



Grilled Fish on Pineapple Planks with Spicy Pineapple Salsa image

This elegant yet incredibly easy preparation uses almost all the parts of a pineapple to yield tasty fillets of bass or snapper. The pineapple's peel acts as a buffer against the direct heat of the grill, preventing overcooking and keeping the fish moist, and its flesh becomes a tasty salsa that brings home the island flavors. The plating of the fish, right on the pineapple "planks," is dramatic and fun.

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ripe pineapple
One 2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for brushing
2 ripe plum tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 small orange bell pepper, finely chopped
1 medium jalapeno, chopped (seeded, for less heat, if desired)
Juice of 1 lime
1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
Four 6-ounce skinless fillets bass or snapper

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Cut the top from the pineapple and discard. Cut the sides off to make 4 flat planks. Finely dice the pineapple flesh (discard the core) and put it in a medium bowl.
  • Finely grate the ginger and add half to the bowl with the pineapple; reserve the rest. Add the cilantro, oil, tomatoes, bell pepper, jalapeno, lime juice and onion to the diced pineapple. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt, then toss well and refrigerate while you make the fish.
  • Stir the soy sauce and honey together with the remaining ginger in a small bowl. Brush the fish with oil and sprinkle lightly with salt. Brush the tops (the flesh side) of the pineapple planks with some of the soy sauce mixture and place the fish fillets on top of the planks. Brush the remaining soy sauce mixture on the tops of the fillets, folding the thinner part of the fillets under if needed to fit on the plank.
  • Place the pineapple planks on the grill, cover and cook until the fish is just cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve the fish on the planks topped with some of the salsa. Serve the remaining salsa on the side or reserve to serve with chips.

PINEAPPLE SALSA



Pineapple Salsa image

This is a simple salsa with a bright acidity, one that you could temper with some diced mango if you like. I've called for a single jalapeño. You could use two if you like. Just keep all the flavors in balance - sweet, salty, sour and fiery. It's terrific on pork and with grilled fish, on tacos or as an accompaniment to breakfast eggs.

PINEAPPLE SALSA



Pineapple Salsa image

A good salsa for fish or chicken-this one is a favorite as I hate fish and this gets me "around that corner!"

Provided by Diana Adcock

Categories     Sauces

Time 5m

Yield 1-1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup diced fresh pineapple
1/2 cup chopped tomatoes
1/2 cup chopped red onion
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 jalapeno, minced
2 teaspoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Into the processor it goes-pulse to desired consistency.
  • If using while grilling I go smooth-If using as a condiment for fish or chicken I don't process at all-just toss ingredients together.
  • Most of the time I just toss, take out 1/4 of the mixture-puree and use that to baste the fish/chicken while grilling.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe pineapple: The sweeter and juicier the pineapple, the better your salsa will be. Look for pineapples that are golden yellow and have a fragrant smell.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro and mint, add a burst of flavor to the salsa. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less since they are more concentrated.
  • Don't overchop the ingredients: The salsa should have a chunky texture, so don't overchop the ingredients. A few small pieces of pineapple, onion, and pepper will add texture and flavor to the salsa.
  • Adjust the spiciness to your taste: If you like a spicy salsa, add more jalapeño pepper. If you prefer a milder salsa, omit the jalapeño pepper or use a milder variety, such as a poblano pepper.
  • Serve the salsa chilled: Pineapple salsa is best served chilled. This allows the flavors to meld and the salsa to thicken slightly.

Conclusion:

Pineapple salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to fish, chicken, shrimp, tacos, and more. It is also a great way to use up leftover pineapple. With its sweet, tangy, and slightly spicy flavor, pineapple salsa is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
