SEARED SCALLOPS WITH PINEAPPLE, GINGER AND LEMON GRASS SALSA
I'm still on my healthy eating kick to get in shape for the summer, but refuse to resign myself to just baked chicken breasts and steamed broccoli. This recipe was exactly what I needed tonight - something that involves a little bit of real cooking, fresh seafood, and a ton of flavor. I will have to keep this one in mind for the upcoming summer evenings. If scallops aren't your thing, try this recipe with jumbo prawns, calamari, or even grilled octopus!

GRILLED FISH ON PINEAPPLE PLANKS WITH SPICY PINEAPPLE SALSA
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.

- 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.

Tips:
- Choose ripe pineapple: Use ripe pineapple for the best flavor. A ripe pineapple will have a sweet, fragrant smell and will give slightly when squeezed.
- Use fresh cilantro: Fresh cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the salsa. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can substitute dried cilantro, but use only half the amount.
- Don't over-chop the ingredients: Chop the ingredients into small pieces, but don't over-chop them. You want the salsa to have a chunky texture.
- Let the salsa rest: After you've made the salsa, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the salsa chilled: Pineapple salsa is best served chilled. You can refrigerate it for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Pineapple salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's perfect for tacos, burritos, enchiladas, and other Mexican-inspired dishes. It can also be used as a topping for grilled fish or chicken, or as a dip for tortilla chips. No matter how you choose to serve it, pineapple salsa is sure to be a hit!
