Instructions

  1. If using an outdoor grill, preheat to medium high or 425 degrees. If using a grill pan, heat over medium-high. Mix the garlic powder, salt, black pepper, paprika and oregano together in a small bowl. Sprinkle the salmon generously on all sides with the mixture. Reserve 1/2 teaspoon of the rub.
  2. Make sure the grill is clean. Brush with olive oil. Add the salmon skin-side up. Add the pineapple. Cook the salmon until blackened, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook another 2-3 minutes until the other side is also blackened (but not burnt). The salmon is done when an instant-read thermometer reaches 130 degrees (for medium rare) or 135-140 degrees (for medium). Grill the pineapple for 2-3 minute or just until it has grill marks, flip and grill on the other side. Chop the pineapple into smaller bite-sized pieces.
  3. While the salmon and pineapple grill, prep the rest of the ingredients and make the dressing. Add the lime juice, honey, dijon, garlic and seasoning to a small bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  4. To assemble the salad. Add arugula to a large serving bowl. Drizzle with a little bit of the dressing. Toss. Season with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 the feta, red onion, pineapple and pepita seeds. Toss. Use.a fork to break off pieces of the salmon. Nestle them on top of the salad. Sprinkle with more feta. Serve!
