Categories Fish Grill/Barbecue

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

24 ounces Salmon fillet (or 4 6 oz. salmon/tuna steaks)
Marinade:
2 Tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 ½ Tablespoons soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 teaspoons peeled, grated fresh ginger
1 ½ teaspoons oriental sesame oil
1 pinch of dried red pepper flakes
½ teaspoon sugar

Steps:

Mix marinade ingredients. Place fillet(s) in plastic sealable bag and pour marinade over, turning to coat. Let marinate 30 minutes at room temperature or 1 hour in the refrigerator, turning the fish once or twice to distribute the marinade evenly. Prepare a grill. Drain fish, reserving marinade. Place fillets on grill over indirect high heat and cover. Baste occasionally with the marinade. Do NOT turn the salmon fillets. When they are done, the fillets will lift easily from the skin. Approximately 5-6 minutes/1/2" inch of fillet or steak.

GINGER LIME GLAZED SALMON

A delicious glaze for salmon. It's not necessary to marinate in advance. This makes a modest amount of sauce/glaze. Should you desire more to serve over rice, increase the amounts but add after removing the fillets from the pan.

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 (4 ounce) skinless salmon fillets
2 1/2 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled, minced and crushed
1 fresh Thai red chili peppers (or more to taste) or 1 jalapeno chile 1/2 cayenne, chopped (or more to taste)
2 tablespoons garlic, peeled and minced
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons asian fish sauce or 2 tablespoons asian oyster sauce
1 tablespoon asian chili-garlic sauce (Sriracha)
4 tablespoons water
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
salt

Steps:

Grind together the ginger, chile pepper, garlic and sugar in a mortar and pestle to get a coarse paste. Transfer paste to a bowl and add fish sauce, lime juice, Sriracha and water; mix to combine. Season with salt; set aside. (This may be done in a small food processor bowl or blender.) This sauce will be divided.
Dry with paper toweling and season salmon with salt. Pour over the fillets 4 tablespoons sauce, turning to coat. Set aside the remaining sauce.
Heat oil in a non-stick skillet. When hot, add the salmon fillets and the sauce used for coating; cook over moderate heat. (Don't add more otherwise you will 'boil' the fillets instead of glazing.) Turn fillets over so that both sides are cooked, scooping glaze over top. Continue to cook until it carmelizes, coating the salmon. Remove the fillets then immediately add to the hot pan the reserved sauce mixture, simmering until it becomes golden and thick. Pour over reserved fillets.
Serve with white or jasmine rice.

Tips:

For the best flavor, use fresh ginger and lime zest. Both add a bright, citrusy flavor to the salmon.
If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use 1 teaspoon of ground ginger. However, fresh ginger will give you a more intense flavor.
If you don't have fresh lime zest, you can use 1 tablespoon of bottled lime juice. However, fresh lime zest will give you a more intense flavor.
To make the glaze, simply whisk together the honey, soy sauce, ginger, lime zest, and garlic in a small bowl. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little spice.
The glaze can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Just bring it to room temperature before using.
To cook the salmon, simply preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet and brush them with the glaze. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.
Serve the salmon immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular options include roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa.

Conclusion:

This ginger lime glazed salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the glaze is flavorful and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
