Oven Roasted Sesame Seed Encrusted Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Arrange salmon on a rimmed baking sheet. Rub with 1 tablespoon of the oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until opaque and medium throughout, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small skillet, toast the sesame seeds over low heat, stirring, until golden, about 3 to 4 minutes; scrape into a large bowl. Add sesame oil, scallions, ginger, lemon juice, mayonnaise, garlic and remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Whisk to combine. Reserve 1/4 cup of the vinaigrette in a small bowl.
• To the large bowl, add bean sprouts, cabbage, carrots and chickpeas, and season with salt and pepper. Mix well.
• Spoon reserved vinaigrette over the salmon and serve with the slaw.

Steps:

• Mix the sesame seeds and red pepper flakes on a plate, then press the salmon fillets into the mixture to coat.
• Heat half the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, add the salmon, and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
• Heat the remaining oil in the skillet over high heat, add the vegetables, and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until just cooked. Drizzle the soy sauce over the vegetables and serve with the salmon and basmati rice.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. In a shallow dish, mix together the chilli sauce, soy, sesame oil, rice wine, garlic and ginger. Lay the pieces of salmon in the marinade, skin-side up, and set aside for 15 mins.
• Put the marinated salmon on a baking tray, skin-side down, and spoon over a little of the leftover marinade. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and roast in the oven for 15 mins, or until done to your liking. Serve with steamed rice and stir-fried vegetables.
