Honey Soy Salmon with Sriracha Mayo

By now you must know my obsession with Sriracha... I.  Love.  It.  I have a relationship with it ....it's my crack.  I've got my husband hooked now as well.  One of my favorite things to do with it is mix it with mayo and serve as a dip for poached shrimp or chicken or a spread for a sandwich or a burger.  I've already blogged about this simple condiment http://delishdishcooks.blogspot.ca/2013/02/spicy-mayo.html

We eat salmon once a week and it's usually flavoured with a little Dijon or Curry spices.  I needed something different but I was craving sweet and spicy.  Enter, this delish recipe, which I will make time and time again.  I've seen similar recipes but they didn't completely appeal to me so I came up with this.

Depending on your heat tolerance, you can tweak the Sriracha to your liking as well as adjust the lime.  I like the lime for a touch of acidity but didn't want it too strong.  By all means add more if you'd like.  I used a squeeze bottle to drizzle it on....just trying to be a little fancy schmancy but if you don't have one, a dollop right on top will do a body good.




Honey Soy Salmon with Sriracha Mayo

Serves 2

2 5oz pc Salmon
2 tbsp Soy Sauce
1 tbsp Honey
1/2 Lime, juiced
1 large clove garlic
3 tbsp Mayonnaise
1 tsp Sriracha
1-2 tsp Lime Juice
Sliced green onion


Combine the Soy, Honey, Lime Juice and Garlic.  Pour over the salmon and marinate for 20-40 minutes in the refrigerator.
Pre-heat the oven to 400 F.  Place the salmon in a dish and bake for 12-14 minutes.  Meanwhile, combine the mayo, Sriracha and Lime Juice.
Drizzle or dollop some of the mayo on the salmon and sprinkle with chopped green onion.
