Best Baked Sambal Fish Recipes

SUNNY'S EASY SALMON BOWL

Steps:

• For the salmon: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with nonstick aluminum foil and set aside.
• Brush all sides of the fish with the olive oil. Sprinkle the flesh side of the fish with the bagel seasoning and drizzle with the honey. Place the fish on the prepared baking sheet skin-side down. Bake until it flakes easily, 10 to 15 minutes. Allow to come to room temperature.
• For the dressing: Whisk together the mayonnaise, lime juice, honey and wasabi in a small bowl. Set aside.
• For the bowl: Just be pretty. Start layering at the bottom of two bowls with the lettuce, then add the rice. Spritz with the juice from a lemon and lime wedge, then continue with the fish fillets in the center of each. Spritz again, then add the avocado, scallions, cilantro, mango and onion around the edges and spritz again with lemon and lime juice. Finally, drizzle with the dressing.

BAKED SAMBAL FISH

Steps:

• Combine the spring onions, lemon juice, lemon zest, sambal oelek, the oils, garlic and ginger in a medium bowl. Add the fish and coat all over, leave for an hour in the fridge to marinade.
• Heat the oven to 200c or 400f.
• Place each fillet of fish in a piece of foil, piling the rest of the marinade and onions on the top, seal loosely.
