Honey Lime Salmon Recipes

ROASTED SALMON WITH JALAPEñO, HONEY AND LIME

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. While the oven heats, combine the honey, jalapeños, vinegar and soy sauce in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then turn the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Set aside.
• Pat the salmon fillets dry using paper towels. Brush a 9-by-9-inch baking pan (or other similar-size baking pan or dish) with olive oil, then place the fillets in the pan, arranging them evenly without crowding. Brush the fillets generously with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Pour the glaze and jalapeños over the salmon, spooning some of the glaze onto the fish as it collects in the bottom of the pan.
• Roast the salmon for 6 minutes, then baste with the glaze. Return to the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked through but still slightly rare in the center, another 6 to 8 minutes.
• Spoon the glaze in the pan over the salmon, then squeeze the lime over the salmon, and sprinkle with salt and cilantro, if using. Serve hot with rice on the side, pouring any glaze that remains in the pan over the rice.

HONEY-LIME SALMON

Steps:

• In cup, mix honey, cumin, coriander, salt, lime peel, pepper, and 1 tsp very hot water until blended.
• With tweezers, remove any bones from salmon. With hands, rub honey-spice mixture all over salmon pieces.
• Lightly oil grill. Place salmon on grill over medium-heat and cook 4 minutes. With wide metal spatula, carefully turn salmon over; cook 4 to 5 minutes longer, just until salmon turns opaque throughout and flakes easily when tested with a fork.
• Sprinkle salmon with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.

HONEY-LIME SALMON

Steps:

• Mince shallots, garlic and from half to all of the remaining jalapeno. Combine in a small bowl with the lime juice and the honey.
• Heat a small saute pan until very hot, and add the oil; reduce heat to medium-high, and saute salmon on one side for about 1 minute. Turn salmon, and add shallot mixture. Reduce heat to medium, and cook until done, following the Canadian rule: measure the salmon at the thickest part and cook 8 minutes to the inch. The salmon should be done in about 5 minutes.
