Salmon fillets steam in a foil parcel with chili, lime and whatever peppers are closest to their expiry date — almost no cleanup, and the expiry radar's favorite excuse to cook.
Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets
- 1 red chili, sliced
- 1 lime, half sliced and half juiced
- 1 bell pepper, sliced thin
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tsp sesame oil
Method
- Heat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
- Lay each salmon fillet on a large square of foil and top with pepper, chili and lime slices.
- Whisk the lime juice, soy sauce, honey, garlic and sesame oil, then spoon over each fillet.
- Fold the foil into a sealed parcel and bake for 15-18 minutes until the salmon flakes easily.
- Open carefully and serve with rice or greens.
