• Preheat oven to 180C/350F and place a large rimmed baking tray in the oven.
• Combine the Marinade ingredients in a bowl or ziplock bag. Add the salmon and set aside to marinate for 20 minutes (while the potatoes are roasting). (Note 2)
• Toss the Roast Potato ingredients in a bowl. Remove the tray from the oven and pour the potatoes onto the tray. Place in the oven and roast for 20 minutes. (Note 3)
• Combine the Beans ingredients into bowl you used for the potatoes (so residual butter sticks to beans) and toss.
• Remove salmon from the Marinade, reserving the Marinade.
• Remove tray from the oven. Move the potatoes to one side and place the salmon in the middle, skin side down. Pile the beans into one corn of the tray (don't spread them out, they will overcook).
• Sprinkle over the salt and pepper all over everything on the tray.
• Drizzle some Marinade on each salmon, then place the tray into the oven and bake for 4 minutes per 1/2 inch / 5 minutes per 1.5 cm of thickness (thickest part of the salmon). My salmon was 1.25 inches / 3 cm thick so I baked it for 10 minutes. (Note 4)
• Turn the grill/broiler onto maximum. (Note 5) Drizzle the remaining Marinade onto the salmon and grill for 2 minutes or until light golden on top.
• Rest for 3 minutes. Use a grater to grate frozen chili and lime zest over the salmon. Serve with lime wedges on the side.

BAKED LIME SALMON

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with foil.
• In a small bowl, combine all the peppers and salt. Then, rub the salmon on both sides and place it on the lined baking sheet and set aside while you take care of the next steps.
• Position a rack in the middle of your oven, and preheat it to 375F.
• While your oven is heating up, add the butter and the garlic to a small microwave safe bowl, and microwave for 10-20 seconds - just enough to melt the butter.
• Then, add in the honey, half of the chopped cilantro, the lime juice and the zest to the melted butter mixture, and whisk to combine.
• Using a small culinary brush, brush the salmon on both sides. Then, roll or fold the sides of the foil around the salmon (like a little boat) and pour any remaining honey butter mixture on top. The foil boat will ensure all that sauce stays under/around the salmon while it bakes.
• Bake until cooked through (about 15-20 mins) depending on how thick your fish is and how "done" you like your salmon.
• Serve with the remaining chopped cilantro and lime slices!

LIME SALMON WITH SOY SAUCE

In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into pan. Return to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with salmon.

GRILLED SALMON RECIPE WITH GARLIC LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• In a sauce pan, melt 1/2 cup butter over medium heat. Smash 4 garlic cloves with the flat side of a knife and add to saucepan with 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Simmer 1 min or until fragrant. Add chopped dill and 2 Tbsp lime juice then immediately remove from heat.
• Arrange salmon fillets on a platter skin-side-down and spoon on 1/3 of butter sauce and brush over the tops. Let salmon marinate while preheating grill.
• Preheat grill to medium heat (350˚F to 400˚F). Oil the hot grates. Place salmon onto preheated grill, skin-side-up. Cover and grill over medium (350˚F) heat undisturbed, about 3 minutes on the first side.
• Carefully flip salmon over (it helps to have a spatula to loosen it and tongs to flip it over), brush on 1/3 of butter sauce then cover and cook another 2 minutes (or according to salmon grilling chart), until internal temperature reaches 140˚F (the temperature will continue to rise to an ideal 145˚F internal temperature off the grill).
• Transfer salmon to a platter and drizzle with remaining 1/3 of sauce in saucepan (if butter has hardened, heat on the stovetop just until melted). Garnish with fresh dill and serve with lime wedges to squeeze over salmon.

HONEY LIME SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
• Season the salmon with salt and black pepper. Mix the honey, soy sauce and lime juice together, stir to combine well.
• Heat up a skillet with the olive oil. When it's heated, add the salmon and cook for a couple of minutes. Add the honey mixture into the skillet, spooning the honey lime sauce on the salmon. Finish it off by roasting the salmon in the oven for 10 minute or until the fish is cooked through. Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.

BALSAMIC LIME SALMON

Steps:

• to 425 degrees F.
• Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment for easy clean-up. If not using foil or parchment (or, if using skin-on fillets), grease your pan with a little olive oil or nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
• by combining lime juice, balsamic vinegar, honey, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a small saucepan. For thicker glaze (which I recommend), add the cornstarch or arrowroot powder.
• Whisk glaze ingredients over medium heat until the mixture thickens. You'll know it's thick enough when it coats the back of a spoon, or when you can clearly see the trail your whisk makes in the glaze. Taste for sweetness** and set aside.
• place the salmon on your prepared baking sheet. Pat salmon dry with a paper towel or clean kitchen towel. Brush with a thin layer of olive oil (start with tsp and add more if needed). Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
• for 4-6 minutes, or until your salmon is just done in the middle.
• When the salmon is done, drizzle with balsamic lime glaze and enjoy!

THE EASIEST SPICY LIME GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Use a microplane to zest the lime and toss the zest into a small mixing bowl.
• Juice the lime, adding the lime juice to the lime zest.
• Add olive oil, minced garlic, soy sauce, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper to lime juice and whisk to combine.
• Lay salmon in a small baking dish (I like to use a glass container with an airtight lid) and pour the marinade over the fish. Turn the salmon to coat and make sure it's covered in marinade. If you have skin on the salmon, place the filet skin side up so that the marinade can soak in.
• Cover salmon with the airtight lid and store in the fridge for thirty minutes to an hour or until you're ready to eat.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat until it's piping hot (you could also use your outdoor grill). Use a heat-resistant pastry brush to brush olive oil over the grill grates to prevent the fish from sticking.
• Remove fish from marinade and place it on the hot grill pan. Let it cook - without touching it! - for 5-7 minutes (see recipe notes) until salmon has lightened in color. Use a thin spatula to pick up the fish and flip it over on the grill. (If you've oiled your grill, the salmon shouldn't stick too much once those nice grill marks have developed). Cook for another 5-7 minutes until fish is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
• Remove salmon from the grill and serve immediately with extra lime wedges (optional). You could also add an extra sprinkle of flaky salt or red pepper flakes to the fish if you like.

MAPLE GLAZED SALMON RECIPE

Steps:

• HEAT OVEN to 425F/218C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil, sprayed with oil for easy clean up.
• MARINATE SALMON: In a medium measuring cup or small bowl, mix together maple syrup, lime juice and zest, garlic, soy and red pepper flakes if using. Pour 1/3 of mixture into a sealed bag or onto a plate (reserve the rest to make glaze). Place salmon fillets in marinade on plate, skin side up. Or put in bag and seal, ensuring salmon is well coated. Marinate for 30 minutes (or less if you don't have time).
• BAKE SALMON: Note 3. Remove salmon from bag and place it skin side down on baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour any marinade left in the bag on top. Bake salmon in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, depending on its thickness. Figure about 10 minutes cooking time per inch if thickness. Don't overcook. Cook just until fish flakes and is still slightly warm pink in the middle (fish should not be white and dry). An instant thermometer should read 130-135F, depending on how you like your salmon. Temp will rise in 5 minutes.
• FINISH MAPLE SALMON WITH GLAZE: While the salmon is baking, whisk cornstarch into the reserved sauce. Microwave for a minute or bring to boil in a small saucepan on the stove until the glaze thickens. If too thick, add a few drops of water. When salmon is done, transfer to plates or a platter (I use a spatula slipped between the skin and flesh to lift salmon off and separate it from the skin). Brush glaze on top of the salmon. Sprinkle on garnishes as desired. Serve over rice or quinoa.

EASY BAKED SALMON WITH GARLIC LIME BUTTER SAUCE

HONEY LIME GARLIC BUTTER SALMON

Steps:

• Position a rack in the middle of the oven. Preheat oven to 375°F | 190°C. Line a baking sheet with a large piece of foil, or 2 long pieces of foil over lapping each other lengthways if your salmon is wide.
• In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low-medium heat. Add the honey, garlic and lime juice, and whisk until the honey has melted through the butter and the mixture is well combined.
• Place the salmon onto lined baking sheet. Evenly pour the honey-lime mixture over the salmon. Sprinkle with a good amount of salt (about 2 teaspoons), cracked pepper, and 2 tablespoons of parsley. Fold the sides of the foil up beside the salmon to keep the sauce under the fillet.
• Bake until cooked through (about 15-18 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fish and your preference of doneness). Then, change oven setting to broil (or grill) for 2-3 minutes on medium heat to caramelise the top. Garnish with remaining parsley and serve immediately with fresh lime slices.
