Asian Marinade For Salmon Food

BAKED SALMON WITH GINGER SOY MARINADE

Steps:

• Prep ahead: In a bowl, use a hand whisk to mix together the Asian rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, Asian sesame oil, garlic, ginger, black pepper, and green onions. This can be done up to a day ahead and kept chilled until ready to use.
• Use paper towels to thoroughly dry salmon fillet on all sides, removing as much excess moisture as you possibly can. Place salmon in a large glass baking dish. Very slowly, pour marinade over the salmon, ensuring salmon is thoroughly coated. Cover and chill overnight (at minimum, marinate for several hours.)
• Remove salmon from fridge and let rest at room temp while oven preheats to 350F, with rack on middle position. Transfer salmon to a large rimmed baking sheet. Salmon should be skin-side down. Evenly distribute marinade over salmon. Bake 10 minutes (if your salmon is extra thick, or very cold, you may bake an additional 3-5 minutes.)
• Remove the salmon from oven, move rack to upper position, and place salmon back on rack. Broil on high for about 5 minutes, watching carefully so salmon doesn't burn. It should reach a nicely browned color on top. Remove salmon from heat, let rest a few minutes at room temperature, and serve warm.

ASIAN GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, whisk together brown sugar, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, ginger, red pepper flakes, garlic, and lime juice.
• Bring to a boil over medium heat until sauce thickens. Set aside.
• Preheat the broiler to high. Line a baking dish with foil and place salmon on top.
• Baste with glaze and broil for 4 minutes. Remove salmon from the oven, turn over, baste with glaze and return to the oven to broil for 4 more minutes.
• Carefully remove salmon from the oven and baste one more time before serving.

HOISIN-GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, chili sauce, lemon juice, ginger, garlic, and olive oil in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place the salmon fillets into the marinade, and turn to evenly coat. Cover the dish with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Remove and discard the plastic wrap from the salmon, use a spoon to scoop up the marinade that has collected in the bottom of the baking dish, and drizzle it over the salmon fillets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 30 minutes.

ASIAN GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Light charcoal briquettes in a grill and brush the grilling rack with oil to keep the salmon from sticking.
• While the grill is heating, lay the salmon skin side down on a cutting board and cut it crosswise into 4 equal pieces. Whisk together the mustard, soy sauce, olive oil, and garlic in a small bowl. Drizzle half of the marinade onto the salmon and allow it to sit for 10 minutes.
• Place the salmon skin side down on the hot grill; discard the marinade the fish was sitting in. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. Turn carefully with a wide spatula and grill for another 4 to 5 minutes. The salmon will be slightly raw in the center, but don't worry; it will keep cooking as it sits.
• Transfer the fish to a flat plate, skin side down, and spoon the reserved marinade on top. Allow the fish to rest for 10 minutes. Remove the skin and serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled.

EASY GINGER SESAME SALMON (ASIAN-INSPIRED)

Steps:

• Combine ingredients in small saucepan and whisk to combine.
• Bring pan to a medium high heat and let simmer, reducing heat as needed, while you cook the salmon.
• Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
• Pat salmon dry with paper towel.
• In a 12 inch cast iron skillet, drizzle some olive oil around the pan and then sprinkle some salt and pepper (helps keep the skin from sticking) in an even layer.
• Place salmon fillets, skin side down, in the skillet.
• Sprinkle the top of the salmon with additional salt and pepper to lightly season.
• Cook salmon over medium heat 6-8 minutes.
• While the salmon cooks, baste once with a little of the glaze (I suggest pouring about a Tablespoon or two in a little bowl to keep it separate).
• Use a fish spatula to carefully flip the salmon.
• Cook without moving the fillets until the center reaches 125 internal temp, about 6-8 minutes.
• While the salmon cooks skin-side up, baste with a little glaze again, especially if you feel the pan is getting a little dry. Take a basting brush and just brush a little glaze along the edges of the skin and the glaze will fall down and cook into the salmon.
• Transfer fillets to plates and spoon glaze on top, as much as desired, for serving. Sprinkle with sesame seeds (optional).
• Serve with Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice and Braised Baby Bok Choy.

• Toast the sesame seeds (if using) in a dry non-stick frying pan until golden, then tip onto a plate and leave to cool.

Steps:

• Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Place a large cast-iron skillet or other sturdy, ovenproof skillet on a burner set to high and heat for at least 10 minutes. You want the pan screaming hot or the salmon will stick to it.

Let cook for about 3 minutes, totally undisturbed, until the salmon forms a nice crust. When the salmon turns opaque on the sides and starts to turn opaque on top, use a flexible spatula to flip the salmon so that it is skin-side down. Brush or spoon the remaining glaze in the saucepan all over the top. Place the skillet immediately into the oven and let cook for 6 minutes (the salmon will appear a little undercooked in the center but will finish cooking as it rests). Remove from the oven and cover with foil. Let rest 4 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately, topped with reserved glaze, chopped green onion, and sesame seeds.

EASY BAKED ASIAN ORANGE SALMON (OR TROUT)

• Make the sauce by stirring together all the sauce ingredients. Set aside until needed.
• *Note: Baking time will vary depending on the size/thickness of your fish. Your first baking period should produce a fish that is cooked/lighter coloured on the outside, but still not quite cooked through the thickest part. Extend your baking time if needed.When oven is preheated, place the salmon into the oven and roast for 10 minutes. (Fish should be cooked-looking on the outside edges with the thicker middle still a little pink at this point). Remove from oven and baste the fish generously with some of the sauce and place a few orange slices on top, if desired. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes. (Fish should be evenly coloured at this point.
• Remove fish from oven and again baste generously. Switch the oven from the Bake setting to the Broil setting (use the "Hi" setting if your oven has both Hi and Lo). Return the fish to the oven to the same middle oven rack and broil for 1 minute. Baste again and broil for another 1-2 minutes. Watch closely so the sauce doesn't begin to scorch, as that will introduce a bitter taste to the sauce.
• Remove from oven and spoon any sauce that may be in the pan over-top of the salmon. Serve immediately.

• Heat a non-stick frying pan. Add the salmon fillets, skin-side down, and leave for 3 mins. When the fish is slightly crispy, flip over and cook for a further 3 mins on the other side.
