LIME-MARINATED GRILLED SALMON



Lime-Marinated Grilled Salmon image

The fresh lime juice and mustard add a nice tang to this moist and flaky grilled salmon. I came up with this marinade after tasting something similar at a friend's house and it is now one of our favorite ways to do fish. You may also use other firm fish steaks instead of salmon; halibut, tuna and swordfish all work well.

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.

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.

ROASTED SALMON WITH GINGER-LIME BUTTER



Roasted Salmon With Ginger-Lime Butter image

Wild Pacific salmon is available in spring and summer, and the flavor is phenomenal. It definitely tastes better than farmed salmon and is always a better choice, sustainably speaking. Though it is expensive, think of it as a seasonal treat. Whether you choose wild king salmon, coho or sockeye, take care not to overcook it.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     dinner, weeknight, seafood, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (1 1/2 pound) wild salmon fillet, such as king or coho, at room temperature
Salt and pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons grated ginger
1 teaspoon lime zest
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 pound baby spinach
Lime wedges, for serving
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions, green and white parts

Steps:

  • Lay the salmon on a rimmed baking sheet, and season with salt and pepper. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Make the ginger-lime butter: In a small bowl, combine softened butter, ginger, lime zest, lemon zest and lime juice. Add salt and pepper to taste, and stir well to combine.
  • Transfer salmon, uncovered, to the oven to cook for about 8 minutes. Check the salmon once or twice as it cooks. Depending on the thickness of the fish, it should be fully cooked when little white juices appear on the surface - moist and yielding with big flakes when probed. It may take 10 minutes for thick fillets.
  • As the salmon cooks, put 2 tablespoons ginger-lime butter in a wide deep skillet or large pot over medium heat. When butter is melted, add spinach and a pinch of salt. Put on the lid and turn heat to medium-high. (You may need to add the spinach in batches.) After 2 minutes, remove lid and stir spinach to help it wilt. When all spinach is wilted, turn off the heat.
  • Transfer salmon to a platter or divide among individual plates. Smear the remaining ginger-lime butter on the fish. Surround with wilted spinach and lime wedges, and top with scallions.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the taste of your dish. Look for limes that are green and firm, and ginger that is plump and juicy. Fresh herbs, such as cilantro and mint, will also add a lot of flavor to your dish.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors: This recipe is a great starting point, but you can easily customize it to your own liking. Try adding different herbs, spices, or fruits to the marinade. You can also experiment with different types of fish or seafood.
  • Make sure to cook the fish thoroughly: Fish is a delicate protein, so it's important to cook it carefully. Overcooked fish will be dry and tough, so err on the side of undercooking it. You can always cook it for a few more minutes if needed.
  • Serve the fish immediately: Grilled fish is best served hot and fresh. If you're planning on making it ahead of time, cook it just until it's done and then let it cool completely. You can then reheat it gently in a warm oven or on the grill.

Conclusion:

Lime and ginger grilled fish is a light and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own liking. With its bright flavors and healthy ingredients, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
