SWEET CHILI SALMON SKEWERS

total time:

30 MINS

 

INGREDIENTS

• 4 (4-ounce) salmon filets, cut into chunks
• a pinch of salt and pepper
• 1 bunch of green onions, sliced into 1 to 2-inch pieces
• 1 cup sweet chili sauce, plus extra for topping
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
• 2 limes, sliced

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place the salmon in a bowl and season with salt and pepper, then cover with the sweet chili sauce, tossing well to coat. Take the chunks and skewer them with about 3 or 4 pieces of green onion in between (I did 4 to 5 salmon chunks per skewer), beginning and ending with the salmon. You can toss with a little more chili sauce if desired.
2. Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add the coconut oil. Place the skewers in the skillet and cook until opaque and golden on all sides, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove the salmon and place it on a plate. Drizzle it with the toasted sesame oil and cover with the cilantro and sesame seeds. Finish with a spritz of lime. Serve with lime wedges and extra chili sauce.
