Recipe Description

Most people who love Asian flavors will adore this dish, especially if it is served alongside simple sautéed spinach. The topping is a cross between a peanut sauce and teriyaki. Fish can make a healthy, satisfying meal, and this recipe is so simple that even a beginner home cook who is intimidated by cooking fish can make it with ease. 

 

Ingredients

Nonstick cooking spray

2 small limes, zested and juiced

3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce

1-inch-piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped

2 garlic cloves, chopped

4 6-ounce boneless filets wild salmon, skin on

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

In a small bowl, mix the lime zest, lime juice, peanut butter, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic.

Heat a large skillet over high heat. Coat the skillet with cooking spray and place the salmon filets in the pan, flesh side down.

Cook 1 to 2 minutes, until the salmon starts to brown. Turn the filets over and turn off the heat.

Spoon the lime mixture over the salmon and slide the skillet into the oven.

Bake 7 to 8 minutes, until the salmon flakes when pressed with a fork.
