This Asian-Inspired Baked Side of Salmon is a delightful combination of aromatic Asian flavours, marinated to perfection and baked to a succulent finish. The sweet and tangy glaze, infused with ginger and soy, enhances the natural richness of the salmon, making it a dish that’s both elegant and easy to prepare.

Ingredients:

1 side of salmon (about 1.5kg)
4 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp grated ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp lime juice
Fresh coriander, for garnish
Sliced spring onions, for garnish
Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions:

1 Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, freshly grated ginger, minced garlic, and a splash of lime juice. Place the side of salmon in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it, ensuring the salmon is evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavours to develop.
2 Bake the Salmon
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper and place the marinated salmon on it, skin-side down. Pour any remaining marinade over the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and slightly caramelised on the edges.
3 Serve
Once baked, remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander, sliced spring onions, and sesame seeds. Serve the salmon hot with steamed jasmine rice and stir-fried vegetables.
