This glaze is really wonderful on salmon, but equally delicious on swordfish, halibut, tuna, or any other firm, full-flavored fish. Ingredients:
4 (8 ounce) fresh salmon fillets |
salt to taste |
1/3 cup cold water |
1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
1 tablespoon hot chile paste (such as sambal oelek) |
1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger |
4 cloves garlic, minced |
1 teaspoon soy sauce |
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil |
Directions:
1. Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. 2. Season salmon fillets with salt. 3. Place salmon on the preheated grill; cook salmon for 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. 4. Combine water, rice vinegar, brown sugar, chile paste, ginger, garlic, and soy sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat. 5. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer until barely thickened, about 2 minutes. 6. Sprinkle basil on top of salmon; spoon glaze over basil. |
