SPICY-SWEET GLAZED SALMON

Spicy-Sweet Glazed Salmon image

I looked for a recipe for glazed salmon and didn't find one that used the ingredients I had on hand. So I threw together what I had and came up with this tangy, spicy sweet marinade that adds flavor, but doesn't mask the flavor of the salmon. My kids and sister loved it. They said it was better than 'restaurant salmon' It's great served with wild rice and stir fried veggies.

Time 2h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 ½ pounds fresh salmon fillet with skin removed
¼ cup red wine vinegar
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup soy sauce
¼ cup water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons chopped fresh cilantro
⅓ cup brown sugar, packed
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Place salmon in a shallow, flat dish, and set aside. Combine the vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, water, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, cilantro, and brown sugar in a blender. Blend until brown sugar dissolves. Pour the marinade over the salmon to cover evenly. Cover the dish, and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
Line a broiling pan with foil. Remove salmon from marinade, and place on prepared broiling pan; season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer remaining marinade to a saucepan.
Turn on broiler to low.
Broil salmon about 6 inches from the heat for 5 minutes; brush with remaining marinade. Broil an additional 5 to 10 minutes, brushing 2 or 3 more times with additional marinade. Salmon is done when fish is no longer bright red and can be flaked with a fork.
Meanwhile, cook the remaining marinade over low heat until it thickens and reduces by one-third, 5 to 10 minutes. Use cooked marinade as a dipping sauce or drizzle over salmon just before serving.

Categories Low Carb Low Fat Low Cal Salmon

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce (or to taste)
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 pound wild salmon fillet, cut into 4 (4-ounce) pieces
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped scallions, for garnish

Steps:

In a 1-gallon zip-top plastic bag, combine the soy sauce, honey, vinegar, Sriracha, ginger, and garlic. Add the salmon, toss to coat evenly, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours, turning the fish once.
Remove the salmon from the bag, reserving the marinade. Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat and add the sesame oil. Rotate the pan to coat the bottom evenly and add the salmon. Cook until one side of the fish is browned, about 2 minutes. Flip the salmon and cook until the other side browns, 2 more minutes. Reduce the heat to low and pour in the reserved marinade. Cover and cook until the fish is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes.
Place a piece of salmon on each of 4 serving plates and sprinkle with the scallions.

Categories < 30 Mins

Time 28m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
4 teaspoons Chinese hot mustard
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
4 -6 salmon fillets (8 oz)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

Heat oven to 425 degrees.
In a sauce-pan, combine first 4 ingredients and bring to a boil.
Remove from heat.
Coat fillets with olive oil, place on a foil lined jelly roll pan, sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake at 425 for 12 minutes.
Remove from oven.
Preheat broiler.
Brush sugar mixture evenly over salmon.
Broil 3 inches from heat for 3 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with fork.

Tips:

Choose the right salmon: Look for wild-caught salmon that is fresh or frozen but not previously frozen.
Make sure the glaze is thick: The glaze should be thick enough to coat the salmon evenly. If it's too thin, it will run off the fish and not caramelize properly.
Cook the salmon over medium heat: This will help to prevent the salmon from overcooking and drying out.
Baste the salmon with the glaze frequently: This will help to keep the salmon moist and flavorful.
Don't overcook the salmon: Cook the salmon until it is just cooked through, but still flaky. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
Let the salmon rest before serving: This will help to redistribute the juices and keep the salmon moist.

Conclusion:

This spicy sweet glazed salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the glaze is flavorful and caramelized. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
