MARINADE FOR SALMON FILLET RECIPES

Steps:

• 1. For the marinade, peel and crush the garlic into a shallow bowl. Peel and finely grate in the ginger, followed by the zest of half the lime.
  2. Next, add the soy, juice from half the lime, the honey and oil and mix together well.
  3. Preheat the grill to medium and line a baking tray with tin foil.
  4. Check that there aren’t any stray bones lurking in the salmon fillets, then cut them up into 2.5cm cubes. Toss them in the marinade and leave for around 10 minutes to absorb the flavour.
  5. Thread the salmon onto 2 large or 4 small skewers (soak them first, if wooden), but don’t push the pieces too tightly together, then place onto the tray.
  6. Grill for around 8 to 10 minutes, or until beautifully glazed and cooked through, turning regularly and brushing with leftover marinade.
  7. Toast the sesame seeds (if using) in a dry non-stick frying pan until golden, then tip onto a plate and leave to cool.
  8. Once cooked, transfer the skewers to a plate and sprinkle with the toasted same seeds (if using), dunking the cubes of salmon in any that escape onto the plate.
  9. Cut the remaining lime into wedges for squeezing over. Delicious served with plenty of greens and brown rice or noodles.

Steps:

• Combine maple syrup, soy sauce, sriracha and garlic in a small bowl, pour into a gallon sized resealable bag and add the salmon. Marinate 20 to 60 minutes, turning once in a while.
• Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray. Remove the fish from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Pour the marinade in a small saucepan.
• Place the fish on the baking sheet and cook 8 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, bring the marinade to a simmer over medium heat and reduce until it thickens into a glaze. Spoon over fish just before eating.
