Spicy Salmon with Coconut-Lime Glaze and Roasted Zucchini

A vibrant and flavorful dish featuring pan-seared salmon glazed with a tangy coconut-lime sauce, served alongside roasted zucchini for a complete meal.

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 lbs Salmon fillets
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil

  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper
  • 2 medium Zucchini, sliced
  • 1/4 cup Coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp Lime juice
  • 1 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp Ginger, grated

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss zucchini slices with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.
  2. While zucchini roasts, whisk together coconut milk, lime juice, soy sauce, and ginger in a small bowl.
  3. Heat remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
  4. Sear salmon for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
  5. Pour coconut-lime glaze over the cooked salmon in the skillet. Let it simmer for 1 minute to thicken slightly.
  6. Serve salmon drizzled with glaze over roasted zucchini.
