Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup vegetable oil
Four 6- to 7-ounce skinless salmon fillets
2 cloves garlic, sliced
3 cups seeded, julienned hothouse cucumbers, soaked in cold water to crisp; drained
1/3 cup chopped Asian basil
2/3 cup Ginger-Lime sauce, recipe follows
3 tablespoons chopped, roasted peanuts
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
3 Thai bird chiles or 1 serrano chile, chopped
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons minced ginger
3 tablespoons fish sauce
3 tablespoons lime juice
3 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick frying pan over moderate heat. Cook the salmon fillets (2 pieces at a time), until they're golden and just done, 3 to 4 minutes on each side depending on the thickness. About 2 minutes before the salmon is done, add the garlic slices to the oil to flavor the fish. (If the fillets are thick, cover and cook a few minutes longer.) Remove the salmon and garlic and drain on paper towels.
  • Combine the cucumber with the basil in a small bowl. Place a small amount of the cucumber mixture on individual plates. Arrange the salmon fillet on top and garnish with the cucumber mixture and sprinkle a few pieces of the cooked garlic on top. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the Ginger-Lime Sauce, top with peanuts and serve immediately.
  • Combine the garlic, chiles, sugar, ginger, fish sauce, lime juice, and water in a small bowl and stir well. Let the flavors develop by setting the sauce aside for 30 minutes before serving.

GINGER LIME GLAZED SALMON



Ginger Lime Glazed Salmon image

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.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

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:

  • Ensure that the salmon fillets are of uniform thickness to ensure even cooking.
  • To achieve crispy skin, pat the salmon fillets dry before searing.
  • Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the salmon from sticking.
  • Sear the salmon fillets for a few minutes on each side to create a nice crust.
  • To prevent overcooking the salmon, finish cooking it in the oven.
  • Make sure the cucumber-lime sauce is well-chilled before serving.
  • Garnish the salmon with fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley, for added flavor and visual appeal.

Conclusion:

Ginger salmon with cucumber-lime sauce is a flavorful and healthy dish that is perfect for any occasion. The crispy skin and tender flesh of the salmon pair perfectly with the refreshing and tangy sauce. This dish is sure to be a hit with family and friends. Here are some additional tips for making this dish:

  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the salmon in a grill pan or on a baking sheet in the oven.
  • You can also use other types of fish, such as trout or halibut, in this recipe.
  • For a spicier sauce, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the cucumber-lime sauce.
  • Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, quinoa, or rice.
