Sweet Chili Salmon Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Rice

   Rinse jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rice with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let sit covered for 5 minutes.

2. 2

   Make the Lime Vinaigrette Herb Salad

   In a small bowl, combine lime juice, olive oil, chopped cilantro, and chopped mint. Stir well and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

3. 3

   Cook the Salmon

   Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, place the salmon fillets skin-side down (if applicable) in the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Brush the sweet chili sauce over the salmon during the last minute of cooking.

4. 4

   Plate the Dish

   Serve the salmon fillets over a bed of jasmine rice and drizzle with additional sweet chili sauce if desired. Serve the lime vinaigrette herb salad on the side.
