A quick and easy alternative to a mid-week take-away. Beautifully fresh and really simple to make!

Adjust the cooking times and make this with chicken too...

Serve with lime wedges and greens seasoned with a drizzle of sesame oil and chopped fresh coriander...

 

What you'll need

Enough for however many you're feeding, I cook for 2.

Main ingredients

  • Salmon
  • Root ginger
  • Lime
  • Corriander (optional)

Fresh/ frozen

  • Garlic

Store cupboard

  • Soy sauce
  • Honey
  • Olive oil
  • Mirin (optional)
  • Sesame seeds (optional)

 

What to do

  1. In a bowl, grate the zest of a lime, 1 or 2 cloves of garlic, a thumb sized piece of ginger. Add 2-3 tbsp soy sauce, a tsp honey, the juice of half the lime (or a tsp or 2 of mirin if you prefer). Give everything a good mix. Pop the salmon fillets in with the sauce and make sure it's well coated with the sauce. Allow to marinate for 10-15 mins.
  2. Cook the salmon to your liking. You could use the grill, oven or as I did, pan fry.
  3. Serve up with your choice of side dish. I cooked some broccoli and tossed it in a little sesame oil and garnished with freshly chopped coriander leaves.
