How to Make Barbecue Roasted Salmon

  1. In a large resealable bag, combine 1/4 cup pineapple juice, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets.
  2. Seal the bag tightly and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, turning occasionally.
  3. Remove salmon fillets from the bag; discard the marinade.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  5. Coat the salmon fillets evenly with the spice mixture.
  6. **Oven Method:** Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange fillets in a lightly oiled baking dish. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
  7. **George Foreman Grill Method:** Preheat your George Foreman grill. Place salmon fillets on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
