Easy sweet chilli oven baked salmon
Description
The salmon is baked skin-side down on parchment paper in a hot 250°C oven, coated with a mixture of sweet chilli sauce, lemon juice, and soy sauce. The high heat allows the glaze to caramelize slightly, resulting in a sticky finish that enhances the natural richness of the salmon. Cooking times of 7 to 10 minutes allow the salmon to be cooked to preference, preserving moisture inside.
This dish pairs well with simple side dishes, as the flavorful glaze is a highlight. Serving it with rice, steamed vegetables, or salads lets the salmon stand out. The recipe requires minimal preparation and delivers a distinctive combination of sweet and tangy flavors that contrast the fish's natural oils.
