Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

1½ pounds (or four 6-ounce pieces) salmon, skin on or off
6 tablespoons Thai Sweet Chili Sauce (best quality, such as Mae Ploy or Thai Kitchen)
3 tablespoons soy sauce (use gluten-free if needed)
1 tablespoon peeled and finely grated fresh ginger
2 scallions, green parts only, finely sliced

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.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality salmon. This will ensure that your dish is flavorful and moist.
  • Choose the right marinade. The marinade will help to flavor the salmon and keep it moist during cooking. There are many different marinade recipes to choose from, so find one that you like and experiment with different flavors.
  • Cook the salmon properly. Salmon is a delicate fish, so it is important to cook it carefully. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. Cook the salmon until it is just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that it is hot and flavorful.
