Habanero pineapple salsa recipe - when sweet meets spicy!!! Yes, we went there with the habanero. It was SO good. The sweetness of the pineapple and the heat of the fruity habanero really made a great salsa. I would eat this salsa with seafood, chicken, pork, and chips, HEY!, we ate it by the spoonful!!!

Habanero Pineapple Salsa Recipe

As I mentioned, we picked up all the ingredients for this Salsa at the grocery store. The produce is so fresh and flavorful. The pineapple may have been the sweetest one I have ever tasted. I have to say this salsa just made me happy. It's absolutely addictive with the perfect mix of sweetness and spice. However, if spicy isn't your thing, just leave out the habanero for a more mild version of this fun side.

How to make this Salsa

First, chop all the ingredients. The pineapple and bell pepper should be cut into small bite-size pieces. Chop the onion and cilantro.

Place all ingredients for the salsa in a bowl. Add the lime juice and salt to taste. Note: We started with ¼ teaspoon salt and then added an additional ¼ teaspoon. Remember you can always add more salt but you can't take it out.

Pineapple salsa on a salmon

We had an incredible experience savoring Habanero Pineapple salsa atop perfectly grilled salmon. The salmon, lightly seasoned with adobo seasoning, was cooked to perfection on a cedar plank, infusing it with a deliciously smoky flavor. It was a wonderfully simple dish that packed a punch of flavor! The Habanero Pineapple Salsa was the star of the show—imagine a burst of sweet and spicy sunshine brightening up the salmon. It was an unforgettable combination that elevated our meal to new heights!
