Salmon is my favorite fish and I prepare it so many different ways, but this is one of the best, not to mention the easiest.  Marinating in pineapple juice begins to “cook” the salmon and the brown sugar-spice mixture caramelizes while it finishes cooking in the oven.  Salmon is so healthy, loaded with omega fatty acids.  Be sure to always buy wild salmon versus farm-raised.  Wild salmon is superior in flavor and texture, and has less toxins than farm-raised.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Place the salmon in a shallow dish.  Pour pineapple juice over the fish. Return the fish to the refrigerator and let marinate for at least one hour, but no more than three hours.

In a small bowl mix together the brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper.

Remove salmon from the marinade and discard the juice.  Season the fish with salt and pepper. Evenly distribute sugar spice mixture all over the fish.

Put salmon onto a foil-lined baking sheet and cook for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on size and until the fish is cooked to desired doneness.
