Hawaiian Salmon With Pineapple Salsa - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    6 (6 ounce) salmon fillets
    2 teaspoons olive oil, plus
    1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
    4 tablespoons lemon juice, divided
    4 teaspoons minced fresh ginger, divided
    1 medium red bell peppers or 1 medium yellow bell pepper, diced
    1 small red onion, finely chopped
    2 (8 ounce) cans crushed pineapple
    1/2 cup golden raisin
    1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    3 cups torn fresh spinach
    3 cups torn fresh romaine lettuce
Preparation
    Rinse the salmon in cool water and pat it dry.
    In a bowl combine 2 teaspoons oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1 teaspoon ginger.
    Coat both sides of fish with the mixture and refrigerate for up to an hour.
    While the fish marinates prepare the Pineapple Salsa.
    Heat the remaining oil in a medium skillet.
    Add the yellow pepper and onion and saute until soft about 4 minutes.
    Add the crushed pineapple, raisins, cayenne and remaining lemon juice and ginger; saute until pineapple is warm, about 4 minutes longer.
    (Salsa can be made ahead up to 24 hours; but bring to room temperature before using.).
    Grill or broil the salmon, turning once, until fish is barely opaque in the center, and just begins to flake when tested with a fork about 2 minutes per side for 3/4-inch thick fish steaks.
    Enjoy!
