Description

Ingredients

• 12 oz Wild Alaskan salmon, cut into four 3-inch portions
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
• 2 TBSP soy sauce (GF or regular)
• 2 TBSP sesame oil
• 2 TBSP Sriracha, more or less to taste
• 1 clove of garlic, minced
• 1-2 tsp rice vinegar, if desired (optional)
• 1-2 tsp toasted sesame seeds for topping
• chopped green onion to garnish

Directions

• Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together your sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, sriracha, and minced garlic.
• Divide mixture in half, reserve half for marinating and half for coating your competed salmon.
• Place salmon in marinade and turn each piece to coat.
• Marinate 15 minutes.
• While the fish marinates, pre-heat your oven to 275 degrees F.
• Bake on parchment paper lined baking sheet for 14-16 minutes at 275 until the thickest part of the fish clocks in at 125 degrees F. This will vary a smidge based on your cut of salmon but dont fret, you can always pop it back in for an additional minute or two as needed. I always yank mine a bit early and check it. Salmon will be firm but still pink in the center.
• Remove from oven and pour your sauce over the salmon.
• I added a splash of rice vinegar to the sauce before pouring it over the salmon to brighten the flavors up. This is totally optional but delicious! You could also serve your salmon for a wedge of lime in place of the vinegar. I love a burst of acidity with savory-sweet sauces!
• Top with sesame seeds and chopped green onion for a tasty garnish.
