Sesame crusted salmon sates with orange ginger
- Ready In:
- 24mins
- Ingredients:
- 11
- Yields:
-
18 sates
ingredients
- 18 bamboo skewers (6-inch)
- 12 ounces salmon fillets, skin removed (and no bones of course)
- 4 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoons orange juice concentrate
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 clove garlic, minced or finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated finely or microplaned
- 3 tablespoons chili paste (use less if you prefer less heat)
- 4 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 -3 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
directions
- Soak the bamboo skewers for at least half an hour before using- you don't need them to catch fire under the grill!
- Slice the salmon into thin strips- I did mine about 1-inch wide by 7-8inches in length.
- Weave on to skewers (just like you would do with chicken) Combine the oyster sauce, orange concentrate, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, honey and sesame oil- make sure you stir this thoroughly, the honey needs to be well combined other wise you end up with a gloopy lump in the bowl!
- You can make this ahead if you prefer and keep chilled.
- Brush marinade onto salmon skewers and leave for 10 minutes or so, to allow flavours to absorb.
- Heat your grill to medium, and then grill salmon for 1- 2 minutes on each side (do watch them though- they don't need to be overcooked) Brush a final slick of marinade onto them as you remove them from the grill and sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds.
- Serve, and enjoy!
- (now my mouth is watering!) (This recipe also works well using a piece of salmon to be served an an entree- serve with a noodle based salad with lots of Thai ingredients of your choice!).

What a wonderful resource I've found! Cooking has been a passion of mine for many, many years. I truly wish I'd gone into it professionally - although I wouldn't have liked doing the dishes!
Originally from the UK, I now reside in Canada, very happily, with my Husband and Son. I enjoy cooking pretty much anything, although if I had to choose something in particular, I'd lean towards desserts - I'd love to have been a pastry chef. I get ratty with people who say they can't cook, and always ask them if they can't read? Recipe books cater to every level, even the most beginner of beginners! I have recipe books from all over the world, many old english recipes, and from a host of other countries that I have travelled to (another passion!) I look forward to sharing mine with you, if you'll share yours with me!
