Start by making the pineapple mango salsa.

Slice fresh pineapple and remove the core, then cut into small pieces.

Dump the pineapple into a large bowl.

Slice up the mango lengthwise and widthwise, then cut into cubes and add to the bowl.

Dice red onion and add to the bowl.

Dice jalapeno peppers and add to the bowl, adjusting quantity to taste.

Dice fresh cilantro and add to the bowl.

Toss the salsa ingredients together until combined.

Add a splash of fresh lime juice and honey to the salsa, then stir it up.

Season the salsa with a little bit of salt and mix again.

Cover the salsa and refrigerate it for later.

Prepare the salmon fillets by ensuring they are thawed and dry.

Cook the salmon skin-side down and splash with fresh lemon juice on both sides.

Generously sprinkle salt on the salmon.

Sprinkle a mixture of chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, brown sugar, and black pepper generously on both sides of the salmon.

Place a slab of butter on top of each salmon fillet.

Bake the salmon at 400°F for 12 to 15 minutes, being careful not to overcook.

Once done, the salmon should be perfectly cooked, flaky, and tender.

Plate the salmon and top with the mango salsa.
