Thai Style Salmon Fillet Recipes

THAI STYLE SALMON FILLET

Steps:

• Start by using a pestle and mortar to crush up the garlic and ginger. Pound it in a while to release the flavor. Now add the chili and coriander and finally the lime to create a marinade.
• Now, heat a good quality pan so it's hot.
• While this happens, spread the marinade from the mortar onto the skinless side of the salmon fillet. Now add a little salt.
• Next, add a good sized knob of butter into the hot dish and place the salmon into the pan, skin size down on a medium to high heat.
• Allow the salmon to cook for about 6-8 minutes allowing the skin to become crispy and also cook the salmon a little too.
• Now turn it about, so the salmon is on the marinade bed and allow it to cook on a medium heat. Allow to cook for about 15 minutes.
• The bed will burn on the pan side, but the salmon will remain unburnt, so don't worry!
• After about 15 minutes, the salmon should be cooked through depending on the thickness of the fillet.
• Remove carefully and serve on a plate with the skin size down.
• Serve with a combination of items, including stir-fry noodles, or traditional vegetables including new potatoes, green vegetables or maybe something a little more experimental!

BROILED SALMON WITH THAI SWEET CHILI GLAZE

Steps:

• Set the oven rack 5-6 inches from the top and preheat the broiler.
• Make the marinade by combining the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce and ginger in a shallow baking dish. Spoon ¼ cup of the marinade into a small dish and set aside (this will be the sauce for the cooked fish). Add the salmon fillets, skin side up, to the remaining marinade and marinate for 1 hour in refrigerator.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Transfer the salmon fillets to the prepared baking sheet, skin side down, and drizzle a bit of the marinade over top. Go easy -- you don't want it to pool too much on the baking sheet because it will burn in the oven. Broil the salmon for 6-10 minutes, or until browned in spots and almost opaque in the center. Transfer the salmon to a serving platter and pour the reserved sauce over top. Garnish with scallions and serve.

THAI SALMON IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil. To make the sauce, whisk together chili sauce, soy sauce, garlic, fish sauce, ginger, lime juice and Sriracha in a small bowl; set aside. Place salmon onto prepared baking sheet and fold up all 4 sides of the foil. Spoon the chili sauce mixture over the salmon. Fold the sides of the foil over the salmon, covering completely and sealing the packet closed. Place into oven and bake until cooked through, about 15-20 minutes. Serve immediately, garnished with peanuts and cilantro, if desired.
