Salmon Bake

My son is a fish freak and so we always have fish at home. Initially I used to buy the frozen fish that we get at the Indian stores but we got fed up with that as it didn’t taste good at all. So started trying the fish available at the local grocery store. To our surprise, Meijer close to us has a lot of variety of fish which we can even order as steaks, fillets or whole fish which they clean the scales and skin and cut according to our requirement. Our favorites are the Marlin and Mahi-mahi. The fish biriyani from marlin is excellent.I will include the fish biriyani recipe some time soon. Once in a while we buy Salmon fillets which I just use for baking, some how I don’t like it for making curries especially if there are left over’s it is horrible.
To Marinate
Salmon Fillet – 1 piece
Salmon rub – 4tbsp (I use the Sweet Citrus & spice rub by McCormick)
Black Pepper powder – 1tsp
Chilli garlic sauce – 2 tsp
Combine the above ingredients together to a paste and rub the fish with this and keep aside for 15 minutes. Bake the marinated fish at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes.
Sauce
Ginger finely chopped – 2 tsp
Garlic finely chopped – 2 tsp
Chilli garlic sauce – 1 tbsp
Pepper powder – ½ tsp
Meanwhile sauté finely chopped ginger and garlic in a tbsp of oil and when slightly brown add the chilli garlic sauce, pepper and 2 tbsp of water and turn it off when it changes to a thick sauce. Mix in some chopped green onions . Before serving the fish pour this sauce over the fish and decorate with few more green onions.
