GINGER AND LIME SALMON



Ginger and Lime Salmon image

JW and I decided to make 2010 'the summer of ginger and lime.' We used a ton of fresh ginger and limes from Memorial Day through Labor Day, and by far, this was our favorite creation. Grill it or broil it. Either way, this salmon is fantastic! We serve this with a tossed green salad and steamed jasmine rice.

Categories     Canadian

Time 18m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 teaspoon finely grated lime rind
1/4 cup lime juice (about 1 large lime)
2 teaspoons vegetable oil (Becel)
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely minced
2 (6 ounce) salmon steaks

Steps:

  • Whisk together lime rind, lime juice, oil, ginger and jalapeno.
  • Set aside a teaspoon of the mixture.
  • Place salmon steaks in a dish just large enough to hold them.
  • Pour remaining lime juice mixture over salmon and turn to coat.
  • Marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes, turnig once (Do not marinate longer than 30 minutes or the salmon will go mushy).
  • Preheat bbq to medium high and grease grill.
  • Bbq salmon turning once, until cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
  • Remove to platter and spoon reserved lime juice mixture over salmon.
  • Serve immediately.
  • If you wish to broil salmon, place on a rack set over a pan.
  • Broil about 4 inches from heat, turning once, until salmon is cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality salmon: Look for salmon that is wild-caught and sustainably sourced. Fresh salmon will have a bright, vibrant color and a firm texture.
  • Use fresh ginger and lime: Fresh ginger and lime add a bright, citrusy flavor to the salmon. If you don't have fresh ginger or lime, you can use ground ginger or bottled lime juice, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Marinate the salmon for at least 30 minutes: Marinating the salmon in the ginger-lime mixture helps to infuse it with flavor. You can marinate the salmon for up to 2 hours, but 30 minutes is the minimum amount of time needed to get good flavor.
  • Cook the salmon over medium heat: Cooking the salmon over medium heat helps to prevent it from drying out. If you cook the salmon over high heat, it will cook too quickly and the inside will be undercooked.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. If you let it sit for too long, it will start to dry out and the flavor will diminish.

Conclusion:

Ginger and lime salmon is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make meal. It's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The ginger and lime marinade adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the salmon, and the salmon is cooked to perfection. Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or salad.
