Perfect barbeque/grill dish, easy to prepare and prep ahead – even works as a cold salad as the salmon can be cooked, cooled and kept in an airtight container for up to 4 days – just as tasty and perfect for spring/summer.
INGREDIENTS
- 4 Boneless Skin-on Salmon Fillets
- 2 tbsp. MasterFoods™ Professional Piri Piri Seasoning
- 1 tbsp. Olive Oil
For the Salad:
- ½ Fennel Bulb, shaved on a mandolin, chilled in iced water
- 2 cups Mixed Salad Leaves
- 2 Oranges, peeled and supremed
To Serve:
- 2 tbsp. MasterFoods™ Professional Chilli & Lime Dressing
Cooking Instructions:
-
1 Preheat a salamander grill on high heat. Season the salmon fillets generously all over with Piri Piri seasoning.
-
2 Heat oil in oven proof frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the salmon skin side down and cook around 3 to 6 minutes until skin becomes crispy.
-
3 Flip salmon fillets and place the pan under the hot grill and cook the skinless side for a couple of minutes until charred but just cooked and still medium-rare.
-
4 For the salad, drain the fennel and pat dry with paper towel. Arrange onto plates, adding some mixed leaves and orange supremes on top.
-
5 Add a piece of salmon on each plate and serve with lime chilli dressing.
Tips
