Salmon with Teriyaki & Siracha cream sauce

After reading a mouthwatering post " Stuffed salmon with siracha cream sauce" on the  Boogie Blog I decided to make this dish with some minor adjustments: I took out the cream cheese to reduce the fat (also, it's not my favorite ingredient).  If you love salmon and spicy, try this new combination! The sriracha sauce, mayo and condensed milk work great together, perfectly complimenting the salmon. Try both versions and tell me about it!

Here is the recipe for you to try.

Serving: 2pax

TERIYAKI MARINADE INGREDIENTS

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1/4 cup cold water

1/4 cup soy sauce

1 cup water

3 tablespoon packed brown sugar 

1/2 tsp ground ginger

1/4 tsp garlic powder

1 tablespoons honey

TERIYAKI MARINADE COOKING

1. in a small bowl, combine cornstarch & water. stir until cornstarch is dissolved; set aside

2. in a saucepan, combine water, soy sauce, ground ginger, garlic powder, brown sugar & honey; bring to a simmer

3. when liquid is simmering & brown sugar has melted, add the cornstarch/water mixture & simmer until thick enough to coat a back of a spoon (do not overthicken!)

SRIRACHA CREAM SAUCE INGREDIENTS

1/4 cup Sriracha sauce

1 cup mayonnaise

3 tablespoons condensed milk

SRIRACHA CREAM COOKING

1. in a medium bowl, combine Sriracha & mayo & whisk well

2. add condensed milk & whisk until fully incorporated; add more condensed milk for a milder taste & more Sriracha for a spicier taste

SALMON W/ TERIYAKI & SRIRACHA CREAM SAUCE INGREDIENTS

2 salmon filets

teriyaki marinade (recipe above)

sriracha cream sauce (recipe above)

green onions (thinly sliced)

sesame seeds

olive oil

  SALMON W/ TERIYAKI & SRIRACHA CREAM SAUCE COOKING

1. in a baking/marinading dish, place salmon filets & add 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup teriyaki marinade. let marinade reach about 1/2 of the sides of filets. marinade in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to overnight

2. preheat oven to 400 degrees. meanwhile, line a baking dish with parchment paper & lightly brush with olive oil; set aside

3. in the prepared baking dish, place salmons & sprinkle a nice amount of sesame seeds. cover the baking dish & salmon filets with another sheet of foil & bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until salmon is cooked then turn to broil for 4minutes. It made the Salmon look browned and more yummy.

4. after baking is done, place in a serving dish & drizzle with sriracha cream sauce & garnish with thinly sliced green onions. Served with mashed potatoes.
