Here are a few simple things to keep in mind when you go to makeASIAN SALMON RECIPE:
INGREDIENTS
As mentioned, thisrecipedoesn’t call for a ton ofingredients; seven does the trick. That said, the ones used in thisrecipeare all essential and will give you big, bold flavours. Of course, you can make thisrecipeyour own so feel free to swap the green onion forscallions, the brown sugar forhoney, and if thesrirachais too spicy, tone it down with toastedsesame oiland a drop ofrice wine vinegar.
One important suggestion; keep backupingredientson hand. You’ll be making this easysalmon recipeagain and again.
FRESH SALMON
Using fresh salmon for thisrecipeis the only way to go. Salmon is a healthy main course option that’s high inprotein,omega-3, andfatty acidsso adding it into our meal planning is a great idea. Some of our favourite types of SALMON include Atlantic salmon, Coho and Sockeye but prepare thisdishusing your favourite depending ontastes. You’ll notice boneless pieces of meat referred to asfiletsor fillets. Both terms are correct but we use the term fillet as it’s often used in the UK and Canada.
ASIAN SALMON RECIPE
Thiseasy recipewas created with all of you busy folks in mind. Basically, you’ll be stirring together a sauce, spooning it over freshsalmon fillets, and then simply bake them for about ten minutes.
This sauce ormarinadeis especially flavourful. We know you’ll enjoy the way the gratedgingerandgarlicblend with the soy, brown sugar, andSrirachasauces. Can’t findSriracha? Substitute it forgarlicchili sauce or add asprinkleofchillies. You should be able to find both in the Asian condiment section of your grocery store.
OVENBAKE SALMON
Please don’t second guess the highoventemperature detailed in theinstructionsfor this post. The highoventemperature accomplishes two things. First, it sears the outside of the fish so that the flesh gets soft and flakey. The high heat also cooks the sauce to a pleasant crisp. Just wait until you take your firstbite. One thing to mention about service, the crispy salmon skin often sticks to the paper orfoilallowing for the flesh of the fish to come away ready to be devoured.
