EASY GINGER SESAME SALMON (ASIAN-INSPIRED)



Easy Ginger Sesame Salmon (Asian-Inspired) image

Easy Ginger Sesame Salmon - A super easy asian-inspired salmon recipe that is PACKED with flavor! (Whole30/Paleo)

Provided by Erin Jensen

Categories     Dinner

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 Teaspoon orange juice concentrate
1/2 Teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup coconut aminos
1 Tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 Teaspoons minced garlic
1 1/2 Teaspoons freshly grated ginger (or ginger paste)
1/2 Tablespoon sesame oil
1/2 Teaspoon fish sauce
Pinch of salt
(4) 4-6oz salmon fillets (skin on)
olive oil
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Combine ingredients in small saucepan and whisk to combine.
  • Bring pan to a medium high heat and let simmer, reducing heat as needed, while you cook the salmon.
  • Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  • Pat salmon dry with paper towel.
  • In a 12 inch cast iron skillet, drizzle some olive oil around the pan and then sprinkle some salt and pepper (helps keep the skin from sticking) in an even layer.
  • Place salmon fillets, skin side down, in the skillet.
  • Sprinkle the top of the salmon with additional salt and pepper to lightly season.
  • Cook salmon over medium heat 6-8 minutes.
  • While the salmon cooks, baste once with a little of the glaze (I suggest pouring about a Tablespoon or two in a little bowl to keep it separate).
  • Use a fish spatula to carefully flip the salmon.
  • Cook without moving the fillets until the center reaches 125 internal temp, about 6-8 minutes.
  • While the salmon cooks skin-side up, baste with a little glaze again, especially if you feel the pan is getting a little dry. Take a basting brush and just brush a little glaze along the edges of the skin and the glaze will fall down and cook into the salmon.
  • Transfer fillets to plates and spoon glaze on top, as much as desired, for serving. Sprinkle with sesame seeds (optional).
  • Serve with Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice and Braised Baby Bok Choy.
