Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Salmon fillets
- 0.5 cup Sweet chili sauce
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 stalks Green onions (optional, for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
In a small bowl, whisk together sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, and olive oil until well combined.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and season them with salt and pepper on both sides.
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the sweet chili glaze generously over the tops and sides of each salmon fillet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Optional: For a caramelized finish, broil the salmon for an additional 2-3 minutes on high heat, but keep a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes.
Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired, and serve immediately.
