Marinated Pan-Fried Salmonsource Jenn Cuisine
I think this is the first recipe I have made from Jenn Cuisine. I love her blog, but sometimes her recipes seem a little out of my league. But, I kept looking at this recipe for weeks and finally decided to try it.
Ingredients:1/4 cup tamari soy sauce1/4 cup sweet chile sauce2 cloves garlic, minced2 tablespoons sesame oil2 tablespoons minced chives2 salmon fillets2 tablespoons canola oil (I used extra virgin olive oil)Directions:In a bowl whisk together the marinade ingredients, then pour into a sealable plastic bag. Add salmon fillets to bag. Squeeze out all air and seal the bag. Push the marinade around to cover both fillets.
Let marinate for 20 minutes.
Heat skillet on medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil to pan. Cook fillets a couple of minutes on each side, until done to your satisfaction. (I like mine cooked all the way through, some like a little pink in the middle). The marinade will caramelize will cooking.
Serve on top of a bed of lettuce, or accompany with your favorite veggies.
Verdict: This was delicious. I don't cook with sesame that often, so when the Hubs walked in the door and smelled the marinade he says what is that weird smell? I was thinking, great. Waste of my time. But, it wasn't. We both loved this recipe. In fact, I am making this again tonight and I will be doing probably 6 fillets. So definitely getting added to the list of recipes.
Hope you enjoy this recipe too.
Side note: I also cooked some rice to go with this and it was great.
