I love salmon. I really do. I like the easiness and versatility of it’s preparation. I never prepare it the same way, it all depends on what I have available in my kitchen. But one time I wanted to add a little something sweet, so I tried this out. And it worked! Lots of hidden ingredients that you can sneak in and not have your kids notice!

Get your salmon fresh or have it completely defrosted before you marinate
Ingredients
- 4 large fillets of salmon (cleaned of skin and bones)
- 2 TB soya sauce
- 2 TB olive oil
- 1 TB sesame oil
- 2 crushed garlic
- 2 tp finely grated ginger
- 2 TB honey
- 2 TB lemon
- Salt and spice
- 1 TB butter
- 4 rosemary sticks
- 3 TB sesame seeds
- Baby potatoes and baby bells peppers (washed and left in whole)
- Asparagus (boiled for 3M)

Directions
- Step 1 In a big bowl mix all the ingredients to get a nice sauce. Dip the salmon in and make sure to cover all over.
- Step 2 In a large zip lock, put the salmon that you already soaked with all the extra sauce. Close the bag really well and mix. Leave to marinate for 1H.
- Step 3 In a pan, melt some butter and cook salmon on both sides just barely to get grill marks. While they’re grilling, put on the sides of pan some rosemary stems for flavor.
- Step 4 In a pyrex arrange salmon and put sesame seeds on top of each to make a nice crust on each. Place potatoes and bell peppers around the salmon and the rosemary sticks you used before along with asparagus.
- Step 5 Place all the extra sauce from zip lock. Cover with aluminum foil, and cook for 30M.
- Step 6 Serve hot with sliced green onions on top of salmon and on the side white basmati rice.
Hi there!
I came across your blog today whilst browsing through my insta account.
I could not help but notice the over all warmth your posts brought to my kitchen as I generally find it as being just another room in the house.
You see, I find it difficult to motivate myself to spend time in the kitchen as i find it dreadfully time consuming.
You have def inspired me to get up and not just throw some ingredients together for the sake of it, but rather display them in an eye catchy way to better indulge in my meal.
Keeep up the great work!
P.S. Thanks for making healthy seem so fun, most health inspired blogs make us feel like we are obliged to chug down that bite without savouring the favours 🙂
warmest regards,
