I was inspired to make this recipe after our last cruise. We came home with the Caribbean sun still glowing on our skin and our hearts yearning for those calming blue waters. We also came home to the coolest gift waiting for us. My friend, Elizabeth, sent me the most AMAZING real maple syrup from her hometown in Maine. So amazing that I just had to give it the respect it deserved. This beautiful salmon filet should do nicely! Add a pineapple and some heat and this dish was born. The Caribbean meets Maine in a beautiful combination of sweet and spicy to make this one Forking EPIC dinner!
