Sweet Sesame Salmon Tray Bake with Spicy Kimchi

Oily fish is an essential part of any healthy diet, and this quick tray bake is rich in Omega-3 and fibre and packed with big flavours. Throw it together in no time with maximum sticky, umami satisfaction. We recommend doubling up the recipe, flaking the salmon through cooked brown rice and serving with extra kimchi for a quick WFH lunch. Delicious served hot or cold.

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Pre-heat the oven to 180°C fan and line a tray with parchment.

Step 2

Make the glaze by combining the kecap manis, sweet chilli, garlic and ginger paste, soy sauce and sesame oil. Trim the broccoli if the stem is very woody and cut the thicker stem in half or quarters, lengthways. Do the same with the spring onions before giving them a rinse under the tap to remove any dirt.

Step 3

Lay the salmon fillets (skin side down) onto the lined tray and scatter the broccoli and sliced spring onions around the salmon. Pour over the glaze and season with a little salt. Spoon the Sesame seeds over the top of each salmon fillet (or scatter the seed onto a plate and dip in the fillets, flesh side down) and place the tray into the oven to cook for 15 minutes.

Step 4

Heat the rice according to the packet instructions.

Step 5

Once the salmon is cooked and the veg tender, serve with the rice and plenty of spicy kimchi and a wedge of lime on the side.
