Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 3.3 lbs skinless salmon
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper optional
- 8 tbsp Westgold butter
- 3 limes finely sliced
- 2 jalapeños sliced
- 1 chilli sliced
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp tabaso
- salt and pepper
- coriander to serve
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat the oven to 300°F / 150°C
- Marinate salmon: Place the salmon on a large pre-lined baking tray. Rub the spices all over the salmon until well coated. Season with salt and pepper. Set to the side while you prepare the sauce.
- Sauce: In a large frypan on a medium– high heat, melt the butter. Once the butter is melted and foaming, add the lime slices and jalapeños to the pan. Cook for 2 – 3 minutes, making sure you do not stir, or until the limes are slightly caramelised. Add the red chilli, honey and tabasco and stir through. Cook for 3 minutes or until the sauce is sticky and thick.
- Bake: Pour the sauce all over the salmon and bake for 15 – 20 minutes.
- Serve: Sprinkle over the coriander and serve immediately with some crusty white bread or some greens to mop up all of that sauce!
Notes
Large salmon fillet – Skinless is easiest, but if yours has skin, pour boiling water over the skin to help it contract so the skin peels off cleanly. It will slide right off!
