CHINESE-STYLE FLAVORFUL SALMON



Chinese-Style Flavorful Salmon image

DH and I really enjoyed this different way of preparing salmon. From Keiko O Aoki's "Easy and Healthy Japanese Food for the American Kitchen." It should be noted that DH and I skinned the salmon filets and it turned out great, but I am posting the recipe as it appears in the book. Also, make sure to use low sodium soy sauce. Even with this, I found the dish to be a little salty and might skip the teaspoon of salt next time to see how it turns out.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillet: Look for a fillet that is firm and has a vibrant color. Avoid fillets that are mushy or have brown spots.
  • Marinate the salmon: Marinating the salmon in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and ginger helps to infuse it with flavor and keep it moist during cooking.
  • Cook the salmon over high heat: This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the salmon while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. Cook the salmon until it is just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can garnish it with green onions, cilantro, or sesame seeds.

Conclusion:

This Chinese-style flavorful salmon recipe is a quick and easy way to prepare a delicious and healthy meal. The salmon is marinated in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and ginger, then cooked over high heat until it is crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside.
