Grilled Salmon with Honey, Ginger and Lime  was the result of an ah-ha moment.  We don’t eat enough fish, and I’m not talking about exotic fish or seafood either.  For some reason, it’s not the first thing that pops into my head when I think about what meals I’ll be preparing. Apparently, we aren’t the only ones, and according to the BBC, in the UK alone, only about a quarter of adults eat any oily fish at all!

Equipment

  • Electronic digital scales
  • Baking Tray
  • Baking Parchment Optional

Ingredients
  

For the marinade

  • 2 Tablespoons Braggs Liquid Amino OR Soya Sauce
  • 1.5 Tablespoons Runny Honey
  • 1 teaspoon Freshly grated ginger root, skin removed
  • 1 Tablespoon Lime Juice
  • ½ teaspoon Sesame Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Sweet Chilli Sauce
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced finely
  • ¼ teaspoon Sriracha sauce
  • 25 grams Spring Onion, chopped finely the white part

To finish

  • 2 Salmon Fillets 125g each
  • Sesame Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Toasted Sesame Seeds
  • 1 Handful Fresh Coriander, minced Cilantro in America

Instructions
 

  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine all the marinade ingredients and mix. Remove about a tablespoon or more of the marinade and set aside- this is for finishing.
  • Place the salmon fillets in the marinade, making sure the liquid covers the fish, cover the bowl with cling film and pop into the fridge for a minimum of an hour.
  • When ready to cook, remove the bowl from the fridge at least 15 minutes before cooking. Meanwhile, put the oven rack on the second to top slot in the oven and switch on the heat to the highest temperature [in Europe, that is usually around 275c, if your oven allows, take it right up to 290c] if you have a broil setting, use it.
  • Place parchment paper [or aluminium foil] onto the baking sheet [if using parchment, lightly brush the baking sheet with oil to keep the paper sticking] and lightly brush the surface with a bit of the Sesame Oil.
  • Remove the salmon from the liquid and place on the baking sheet. Gently pour some of the marinade over the salmon- not too much as you don't want to cause it to burn.
  • Grill for 6-10 minutes (depending on the temperature of the oven) until the salmon is golden brown on the outside and opaque on the inside.
  • Transfer to individual plates or a serving platter. Pour the reserved marinade on top and garnish with the coriander and toasted sesame seeds.
