Teriyaki Salmon with Stir-Fried Vegetables

I am a fish person and after moving to the US, salmon has topped the list of my 'favorite foods.' It is healthy, tastes good and you can try it in different styles, it always tastes good.  This Saturday I tried Teriyaki Salmon, it was easy to cook and perfect for the weekend!


Teriyaki Salmon 

Salmon - 1 strip (depends on how much you want to eat)
Teriyaki sauce - 2-3 tablespoons depending on the quantity of fish
Ginger-Garlic Paste - 1 teaspoon
Red Chilli powder - 1/4 teaspoon
Pepper - a pinch
Salt - to taste
Extra virgin olive oil - 1/2 teaspoon
Lemon - 1 squeezed
Oregano - to garnish the fish

Mix teriyaki sauce with ginger-garlic paste, oil, lemon juice, red chilli powder & salt. Marinade fish in this mixture for 30 minutes. 

Heat oven to 400 F and add a little oil on the surface of the oven tray. Transfer fish to this tray, add the marinade mixture on the top and grill for 15 minutes. 

Remove fish, sprinkle oregano and grill it again for 5 minutes. Turn carefully with a wide spatula and grill for another 4 to 5 minutes or until cooked which normally depends on the thickness of the fish. 

Serve warm with stir-fried vegetables.

Stir-Fried Vegetables

Totally depends on which veggies you want to eat. I added used beans, broccoli, baby corns, carrots, red bell pepper, spinach, water chestnuts and peas. Steam veggies until cooked. When cooked, add the same marinade mixture that we used for salmon. It will add an Asian flavor to the veggies. Adjust salt and serve hot!
