Ingredients

1/4 cup pineapple juice
2 tablespoons lemon juice
4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets
2 tablespoons brown sugar
4 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons grated fresh lemon rind
3/4 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Method

Place the salmon fillets in a large resealable bag with the pineapple juice and lemon juice. Seal the bag and let it marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour, turning the bag now and then.
Take the fish out of the bag and discard the used marinade. Mix together the brown sugar, chilli powder, lemon rind, cumin, salt, and cinnamon. Cover the salmon fillets evenly with this spice blend and place them in a baking dish that has been lightly oiled.
Bake the salmon at 400° for 12 minutes. The fish is done when it flakes apart easily with a fork.
