Grilled Mahimahi with Pineapple SambalRomulo Yanes

In Indonesia, the term sambal encompasses a wide range of condiments and side dishes. Our version gets its sweet and spicy flavor from pineapple and chiles.

Active time: 35 min Start to finish: 50 min

Cooks' notes:

• If you can only find pineapple labeled "super sweet," omit sugar in sambal. • Sambal can be made, without cilantro, 4 hours ahead and kept chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature and stir in cilantro before serving. • If you aren't able to grill outdoors, fish can be cooked in a well-seasoned large ridged grill pan (without crowding) over moderately high heat, skin sides down first, turning over once, until just cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes total.
