Salmon with Thai-style dressing is a delightful and aromatic dish that combines the rich flavors of fresh salmon with a zesty and vibrant Thai-inspired dressing. This recipe is perfect for a light, healthy meal that brings an exotic flair to your dining table. The blend of lime juice, fish sauce, garlic, ginger, and fresh herbs creates a harmony of tastes that beautifully complements the tender, fatty salmon and the delicate rice noodles.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Typically, this involves soaking them in hot water for around 8-10 minutes until they are tender.
- Once cooked, drain and rinse the noodles under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the lime juice, fish sauce, chopped coriander leaves, roughly torn spearmint leaves, grated ginger root, and minced garlic cloves. Mix well to combine. This will be your Thai-style dressing.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased with cooking spray.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the salmon, ensuring it's evenly coated. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
- Bake the salmon for about 12-15 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork and is opaque in the center. Cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
- Once the salmon is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes, then gently flake it into bite-sized pieces with a fork.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice noodles and the Thai-style dressing. Toss well to ensure the noodles are evenly coated with the dressing.
- Gently fold in the flaked salmon pieces, being careful not to break them up too much.
- Divide the salmon and noodle mixture among serving plates.
- Garnish with additional coriander and spearmint leaves if desired for extra flavor and freshness.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your Salmon with Thai-Style Dressing as a light and flavorful meal.
Tips:
- For optimal flavor, marinate the salmon in the dressing for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- Use fresh herbs and fresh ginger for the best flavor profile.
- Be sure to cook the salmon skin-side down first to achieve a crispy skin.
- Do not overcook the salmon; it should be opaque and flake easily with a fork when done.
- Rinse the rice noodles under cold water after cooking to stop the cooking process and keep them from sticking together.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of lime juice and fish sauce according to your taste preference.
