Words & Brush Recipe Corner: Firecracker Salmon Magic

Firecracker Salmon Magic

By Lisa Starr, Meatland

https://www.meatland.net/

Firecracker Salmon is simple to prepare and guaranteed to enhance rather than mask salmon's subtle flavour, this marinade works equally well on chicken breasts too.

Enjoy double the serving opportunities as you liven up summer dining with dinner-table firecrackers.

Experience an explosion of great taste in every bite!

800 grams salmon fillets
Chopped chives/spring onion to garnish
Sesame seeds

MARINADE
2 teaspoons crushed garlic
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger*
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 - 1 teaspoon chilli flakes
1 tablespoon Sriracha/chilli sauce
1 teaspoon coarse black pepper

* Keep a large, peeled chunk of ginger in the freezer and grate from frozen. That way you have fresh ginger available always.

1: Whisk marinade ingredients together in a non-metallic, shallow baking dish, add salmon fillets and turn to coat evenly on both sides, then cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight if time permits.
2: Pre-heat your oven to 190 C and bake for 15-17 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets. Be sure not to overcook as it will continue cooking in the residual heat even when removed from the oven. 
3: Garnish with spring onion/chives and sesame seeds and serve with side-servings of your choice. This is best served from the oven but is still delicious when cold. You honestly can't go wrong with salmon!

ENJOY!

July Open Thread

 

  

Summer's still in full swing, and that also brings about our country's birthday and

how we celebrate is a gift to us by reflecting on the historical events that happened throughout our history.  

Keep the fun, the laughter and togetherness

Enjoying the homemade cookouts, the laughter and make sure there are enough

citronella candles to keep the flies and insects away.  

Add the sweets and cheer wherever you go

Kick back and remember the good days of a pool party

As the light fades in the west, we wait just a little longer.  On a warm summer night in the South this was the place.  Watch the whole thing, with Elvis "Dixieland" at the end.  This is the famous Laser Show.  They would shine the colored strobes to trace out the horses on the carvings.  We all know things are a bit scary, but hold true, we are moving forward.  God bless the USA.

Or some may just want a night to see the fireworks

Don't forget the red white and blue berry trifle treats.

Now an easy way to do this.  Get a sponge cake from the store, break it

into pieces, put in the glass like a parfait.  Things are in a rush these days and though a homemade treat is always the best,

this will help to make it much easier.
