• Salt and pepper for taste
• 2/3 cup of Thai sweet chili sauce or homemade here -- http://whiskitrealgud.com/2016/10/easy-sweet-thai-chili-sauce/
• 2 tbs sambal oelek (optional) ( I didnt use it)

Directions

• Position rack 4-6 inches from the heating element and preheat the broiler.
• Season salmon all over with salt and pepper. In a small bowl stir together the Thai sweet chili sauce, sambal oelek, and mustard.
• Pour the mixture into a large cast-iron skillet. Set skillet over medium-high heat until the mixture boils.
• Lay the salmon skin side up, in the sauce. Cook the salmon until it turns pale pink about 2 minutes, then move the skillet to the oven and broil
• until the skin gets crispy about 3-4 minutes.
• Remove the salmon from the oven and place on a serving platter pour the sauce from the skillet over the salmon.
• Add 1/4 cup of water to the skillet and cook over high heat, stirring and scraping until the sauce thickens. Pour the sauce from the skillet onto the salmon. Note***( I skipped this step and just spooned the sauce from the skillet but its in Chrissys recipe so its optional) Serve immediately.
