Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium)
  • 3 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
  • 2 tablespoon lime juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger (minced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper (or to taste)
  • 1-2 pound salmon fillet (no skin)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 2 green onions (chopped)

Instruction

  • Preheat your oven to 375 F degrees. Place 2 foil sheets on a baking sheet. I used 2 foil sheets because I want to make sure there's enough foil to wrap around the salmon.
  • In a small bowl whisk together the soy sauce, maple syrup, sweet chili sauce, lime juice, fresh ginger, garlic, salt and pepper. The salt can probably be omitted since the soy sauce should have plenty of sodium. 
  • Place the salmon fillet over the foil then pour about half the marinade over and brush if necessary to cover the entire surface of the fish. Turn the fish over and pour the rest of the marinade. Also brush the marinade making sure that the entire fish is brushed with marinade.
  • Fold the edges of the aluminum foil over the salmon so that it is fully wrapped. Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes, depending on the size of your salmon. My salmon was quite a big piece, so I baked it for 25 minutes. You may also turn the broiler on and broil for about 2 to 3 minutes at the end if preferred.
  • Open the foil and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
