Five star salmon recipe with delicious sweet thai chili sauce, lime, cashews and fresh coriander.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/3 cup (80 ml) Thai sweet chili sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 Tablespoon agave syrup (or honey)
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1/2 small red chili pepper, minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 pieces of salmon (6oz/150g each)
  • 1/2 cup (75g) cashews, crushed
  • 1 handful of fresh coriander

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine sweet chili sauce, lime juice, and agave syrup (or honey). Season with salt and pepper. Whisk to combine and add minced red chili pepper and garlic.
  2. In a shallow baking dish, place the 4 pieces of salmon and cover with two thirds of the marinade. Allow to marinate for at least one hour in the refrigerator.
  3. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and bake the salmon for about 15-20 minutes, until tender but not over-baked.
  4. Heat the remaining sauce in a small saucepan until you get a slightly thick consistency.
  5. Serve the salmon in a dish or a plate, covering with the remaining Thai sauce. Sprinkle some crushed cashews on top, garnish with fresh coriander and enjoy with a side of rice.
