Peanut Free

Contains Tree Nut

This colorful, coastal-inspired dish brings a taste of the tropics to your plate. Salmon is glazed with a sticky-sweet tamarind sauce spiked with chipotle and honey, then seared until tender and caramelized. It’s served over fragrant coconut rice with roasted asparagus, and finished with a pineapple pico de gallo—bright with red onion, chili, and fresh herbs for a juicy contrast.
