Sweet-Spicy Salmon
Honey accents the natural sweetness of salmon, and a little heat makes things interesting. Find Asian chili-garlic sauce in the Asian food sections of supermarkets.
Ingredients
- 1½ tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon Asian chili-garlic sauce
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 teaspoons tomato paste
- Pinch of salt
- Olive oil
- 4 salmon filet portions (approximately 1 pound total)
- Coarsely chopped peanuts, for garnish
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, chili-garlic sauce, lime juice, tomato paste and pinch of salt until combined.
-
Cover the bottom of a baking pan with a little olive oil. Place the salmon filets in the pan, skin side down, and sprinkle lightly with salt. Spread the honey mixture over the filets.
-
Bake for 12–15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the filets and how done you like your salmon. Top with peanuts and serve.
