Health benefits of Maple-Glazed Salmon with Pineapple Salsa

Salmon is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are crucial for reducing inflammation and promoting cardiovascular health. It is also rich in vitamin D, which helps regulate insulin levels and improve mood, both of which are important for managing PCOS symptoms. Additionally, salmon provides a good amount of B vitamins, particularly B12, which supports energy production and helps maintain healthy nerve function. Including salmon in your diet can help balance hormones, reduce inflammation, and support overall well-being.

Ingredients

4 (6 oz) salmon fillets
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce
1 tablespoon pineapple juice
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
1 clove garlic, mashed
1 medium sized ripe tomato, chopped into small cubes
1/4 cup red bell pepper, chopped
2 pickled jalapeño slices, deseeded & finely chopped
1/2 cup pineapple chucks, fresh or canned
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar

Instructions

Place salmon fillets in a resealable plastic bag. Combine maple syrup, teriyaki, pineapple juice, ginger and garlic in a non reactive bowl or measuring cup. Pour marinade over fillets and refrigerate from 1 to 24 hours. In a grill basket sprayed with cooking spray, grill the salmon skin side down first over hot coals.
