Description

This recipe is found in the "Oven-Baked Meats & Fish" section of Trim Healthy Table Cookbook. This recipe is a family-serve recipe that feeds 6 to 8 people. (Halve the recipe if your family is smaller, or make in full and freeze half.)

Ingredients

coconut oil cooking spray
2 lbs salmon (2 pounds salmon fillets, skin on or not is fine; or 1 fillet for each adult or big-eating child)
1/3 cup soy sauce
4 cloves fresh garlic (4 to 6 garlic cloves; minced)
1 1/2 tsp fresh ginger (1½ teaspoons finely grated or minced fresh ginger)
1 1/2 tsp TH Super Sweet Blend (1½ to 2 teaspoons TH Super Sweet Blend; or 1 to 2 tablespoons TH Gentle Sweet)
1 Tbs Sriracha sauce (1 to 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce; Huy Fong brand . . . find it in the international foods aisle at your grocery store)
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (½ to 1½ rounded teaspoons red pepper flakes; all depends on your heat preference)
extra virgin coconut oil (coconut oil; 1 rounded teaspoon for each piece of fish)
3 green onions (finely diced)

Instructions

1
Spray 1 extra-large baking dish or 2 medium baking dishes with coconut oil. Place the fillets in a single layer in the baking dish(es).
2
Mix together the soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sweetener, Sriracha, and pepper flakes in a bowl. Pour it over the salmon, making sure each piece is coated well on both sides.
3
Cover the dish(es) with plastic wrap, put them in the fridge, and allow the salmon to marinate for at least 1 hour. It’s best for several hours or even overnight. (You can also bake or broil right away if you’d like.)
4
Preheat the oven to 400°F or the broiler to high.
5
Uncover the fish and put 1 teaspoon of coconut oil on each piece of fish. Bake for 15 minutes or broil on the second rack from the top until it’s just done. Top with the green onions once they’re cooked.

Note

MAKE A FAMILY MEAL:

For the weight-loss plan, Thai-Kissed Cucumber Salad (page 268) is wonderful with this salmon, or any S-friendly salad works. Pair it with Cauli Rice (page 263) or sautéed Trim Healthy Noodles or Troodles (page 264), or fill up with another non-starchy veggie.
Brown rice is always perfect with fish for Crossover members of your household.
