The recipe is here:
Ingredients
Serves 4
Preparation1/4 cup pineapple juice- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 4 teaspoons chili powder
- 2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Cooking spray
- Lemon slices (optional)
- Combine first 3 ingredients in a zip-top plastic bag; seal and marinate in refrigerator 1 hour, turning occasionally.
- Preheat oven to 400°.
- Remove fish from bag; discard marinade. Combine sugar and next 5 ingredients (sugar through cinnamon) in a bowl. Rub over fish; place in an 11 x 7-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake at 400° for 12 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Serve with lemon slices, if desired.
This is what my fish and the potatoes below looked like:
I have a few things that I changed or would do differently next time around. First, I would make a double of the rub. By the 4th piece of fish, I was scrounging the bottom of the bowl. Second, I left out the cinnamon. I am not a cinnamon fan for the most part.
Second part of the dinner was OLIVE OIL, GARLIC, CHIVES AND ROMANO CHEESE MASHED POTATOES

The recipe is here:
Ingredients:
2 lbs or 3 large potatoes, scrubbed, peeled and diced large
6 cups water (to boil the potatoes)
1 teaspoon salt (to add in boiling water to cook the potatoes)
4 cloves garlic, ends snipped and peeled
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/3 cup grated Romano cheese (or can use Parmesan cheese for substitute)
1 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped chives
salt (optional and according to taste)
Procedure:
1. In a medium size saucepan, put diced potatoes, peeled garlic cloves and water and bring to a boil. Once the water boils, add the salt and cook potatoes until tender.
2. Drain the water from the saucepan of cooked potatoes and garlic. While still piping hot, mash the potatoes and garlic, either leave some bits unmashed (for texture) or mash until smooth.
3. Add the extra virgin olive oil and evaporated milk and continue to mash/mix.
4. Mix in the grated Romano Cheese and season with pepper and salt (optional and according to taste).
5. Fold-in the chopped chives. And serve hot or warm, with or without gravy.
Serves 3-4
I have a few things I did differently. First, mashed potatoes are best with milk and butter, so I didn't use olive oil or evaporated milk. Second, I only had Parmesan/Romano cheese.
Overall, AMAZING dinner! We all were VERY happy with it.
