Honey- Soy Broiled Salmon


I was tired of chicken and my husband had been eating steak every night at the fire station so SALMON it was! Thanks to food network I came up with this tasty catch!
Ingredients

* 1 scallion, minced
* 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
* 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
* 1 tablespoon honey
* 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
* 1 pound center-cut salmon fillet, skinned (see Tip) and cut into 4 portions
* 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds (see Tip)

Directions

Whisk scallion, soy sauce, vinegar, honey and ginger in a medium bowl until the honey is dissolved. Place salmon in a sealable plastic bag, add 3 tablespoons of the sauce and refrigerate; let marinate for 15 minutes. Reserve the remaining sauce.

Preheat broiler. Line a small baking pan with foil and coat with cooking spray. Transfer the salmon to the pan, skinned-side down. (Discard the marinade.) Broil the salmon 4 to 6 inches from the heat source until cooked through, 6 to 10 minutes. Drizzle with the reserved sauce and garnish with sesame seeds. Serve and Enjoy!


To toast seeds: Cook in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes.

How about some Fish Tacos?!


Forget all of those other recipes! This is the one you want!

1 pkg of corn tortillas
1 jar of jalapeno ranch dressing
1 jar of your favorite mango salsa
1 can of black beans
1 pkg of chopped cabbage (purple or green)
1 pkg of Fish Fry
2 cups of your favorite fish cut up into inch chunks
2 cups oil
1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese

I used cod fillets. Dip them in water and then into the fish fry mixture and then cook in the hot oil. Place spoonful of warmed black beans on tortilla first, followed by the cabbage, fish, salsa, ranch dressing, and then top with cheese. Serve and Enjoy! It is truly that easy and delicious!

Update:
I forgot to buy the ranch dressing when I made them today and I think I liked it just the same. So if you would like to use less ingredients go for it. Also, if you double up on the tortillas your filling will not fall through. I hate that!
