Fish turner
Ingredients
2
pounds
center cut salmon
cut into 4 filets
1
Tablespoon
olive oil
Marinade
1
Tablespoon
minced garlic
1 1/2
Tablespoons
brown sugar
1
teaspoon
minced ginger
2
Tablespoons
ketchup
2
Tablespoons
hot sauce
such as Frank's Red Hot
2 1/2
Tablespoons
Asian sweet chili sauce
2 1/2
Tablespoons
soy sauce
1 1/2
teaspoons
smoked paprika
1 1/2
Tablespoons
Slap Ya Mama Cajun seasoning
Instructions
Combine all marinade ingredients in a medium bowl until well incorporated.
Place salmon filets in glass dish or plastic bag. Add marinade and turn to coat. Place in refrigerator for one hour.
Preheat oven to 375 F.
Add olive oil to oven proof skillet and heat over medium-high until shimmering.
Remove salmon filets from the marinade (allow excess to drip off first) and place in the skillet, skin side up. Do not discard remaining marinade.
Cook for 3-4 minutes then turn over and cook another 3-4 minutes. Brush salmon filets in pan with a generous amount of reserved marinade.
Place skillet in the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
Notes
Always cut salmon into filets while it is raw. Cutting salmon once cooked is difficult because the fish will flake and you won’t get clean lines.
You can use your favorite hot sauce here, we like to use Frank's red hot.
