ingredients
1/2 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
12 slices fresh pineapple
6 salmon fillets or steaks
salt and pepper, to taste
directions
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and grease the grates well.
Combine the orange juice, brown sugar, mustard, honey, soy sauce, and ginger in a small bowl and mix until combined. Transfer 1/4 cup of the sauce to another container to use on the finished dish. Set both aside.
Place the pineapple slices on the grill and cook for 2 minutes per side or until soft and lightly browned. Remove from the grill and place 2 pineapple slices on each individual dinner plate.
Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Place on the grill and cook for 3 minutes. Baste with the honey-orange sauce then carefully turn the salmon over. Baste with the sauce and cook for 5 more minutes or until the salmon is cooked (it should flake easily with a fork).
Place the salmon fillets on top of the grilled pineapple slices, drizzle with the reserved sauce, and serve immediately.

We did this one in a pinch. Used pineapple juice instead of orange juice and left out the sugar. It turned out absolutely amazing.

I'm always looking for different recipes to grill and don't do anywhere near enough fish recipes. This turned out great and we loved the grilled pineapple with it.

Made this for a family party, and everyone loved it. We caught salmon this weekend and decided to try a new recipe. For the first time my 5-year old said "ohhh, I like this fish! It tastes delicious!" I didn't have orange juice so I substituted a 1/4 cup pineapple juice and a 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar. Served the pineapple and salmon with brown rice. A single bite including the pineapple, rice and a piece if salmon was delicious! I devoured my plate, and so did all the guests.

Wonderful flavor, next time I would use 1/2 the OJ for a thicker marinade. I also used the sauce to grill veggies, nice flavor.
