Introducing: Sweet and Spicy Citrus Salmon

Today, I’m sharing a recipe that is perfect for those lazy summer evenings when you want something light yet flavorful. This Sweet and Spicy Citrus Salmon dish is a unique combination of tangy citrus flavors and a kick of heat that will leave your taste buds tingling.

Ingredients:

• salmon fillets (250g each)
• freshly squeezed orange juice (100ml)
• honey (50g)
• sriracha sauce (15ml)
• garlic powder (5g)
• fresh ginger, grated (10g)
• green onions, chopped (30g)
• toasted sesame seeds (10g)

Kitchen Tools:

• baking sheet
• mixing bowl
• whisk
• grater
• oven

Preparation:

Start by preheating your oven to 200°C. Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. In a mixing bowl, combine the orange juice, honey, sriracha sauce, garlic powder, and grated ginger. Whisk until well combined.

Pour the marinade over the salmon fillets, making sure they are well-coated. Allow them to marinate for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors soak in.

Once marinated, place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Sprinkle the chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds over the salmon before serving. This dish is best enjoyed hot, straight out of the oven.

Tips:

For an extra burst of citrus flavor, try adding some freshly grated lemon zest to the marinade before baking the salmon. The combination of orange, ginger, and lemon creates a zesty explosion in every bite.
