Best Honey Chipotle Salmon Recipes

BROWN SUGAR-CHIPOTLE SALMON WITH HONEY-BERRY GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Press berries through sieve into medium bowl. Discard seeds. Transfer 1/4 cup berry puree to medium bowl. Whisk in honey, butter, and lime juice for glaze. Transfer 6 tablespoons glaze to small bowl and reserve as sauce.
• Place rack on rimmed baking sheet. Mix brown sugar, cumin, salt, and chipotle on plate. Dip flesh side of salmon in spice mixture; place coated side up on rack. Brush with remaining glaze.
• Bake salmon until just opaque in center, about 15 minutes. Serve, passing reserved glaze separately as sauce.

SALMON WITH CHIPOTLE HONEY GLAZE

Steps:

• Remove salmon from the refrigerator 15 minute before cooking. Heat grill to 375°F
• Stir honey and chipotle puree in a small bowl until well combined.
• Cut 2 pieces of wide, heavy-duty aluminum foil about 6-in. longer than the salmon side. Stack the foil pieces (shiny side down) on a baking sheet and spray generously with cooking spray.
• Place the salmon, skin side down, in the middle of the foil. Fold the foil sides and ends up (1 to 2-in.) to make a shallow pan around the salmon, leaving at least a 1-in. margin around the fish. Season salmon with salt and pepper.
• Carefully transfer the foil pan to the center of the preheated grill. Do not cover the salmon or close the foil over the salmon. Close grill cover and cook for 5 minute Spread the glaze on the salmon (1 tablespoons per salmon portion or 1/3 Celsius per salmon side).
• Close grill and continue to cook about 5 to 7 minute more. Cook just until fish is lightly translucent in the center. It will finish cooking from retained heat. Remove from the grill and let rest a few minutes before serving.
• Garnish with lime zest and serve with lime wedges.
• Alternate Cooking Method: Salmon can also be roasted in an oven preheated to 375°F or pan-seared and finished in the oven. Cook just until lightly translucent in the center; be sure to let the salmon rest a few minutes before serving.

HONEY CHIPOTLE SALMON

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 450° F - line large baking sheet with aluminum foil (for easy clean-up), then spray non-stick cooking spray on lined baking sheet. If you have a roasting rack, then place the rack on top of foil lined pan.
• 2. In medium size bowl combine honey, olive oil, sea salt, chipotle chili powder, garlic and onion powder, paprika and Italian season.
• 3. Place the salmon on a plate and spoon the mixture over fillets, spreading it to coat each piece of salmon evenly. Then place each fillet on baking sheet about an inch apart from each other.
• 4. Bake salmon for about 15 - 20 minutes or until cooked through.
• 5. Remove from oven and garnish with fresh scallions and serve with lemon slices.

SPICY HONEY-CHIPOTLE SALMON BOWL

Steps:

• Bring chicken broth and butter to a boil in a saucepan. Add rinsed brown rice and reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 45 to 50 minutes. When finished, remove from the heat, cover, and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• When the rice has about 30 minutes left, combine green beans, sweet potato, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl; toss to combine. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, separating green beans on one side and sweet potatoes on the other.
• Combine honey, chipotle pepper, and garlic in a bowl; season to taste with salt and pepper. Brush mixture onto frozen salmon and place on top of the green beans, skin-side down (this step is important.)
• Roast in the preheated oven until vegetables are soft and salmon flakes easily with a fork, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Remove from the oven. Divide rice between 2 bowls. Top each bowl with vegetables and a salmon fillet. Sprinkle toasted pecans over top.

HONEY CHIPOTLE SALMON WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375ºF.
• Blend first 3 ingredients in blender until smooth. Add 1 cup dressing mixture to vegetables in large bowl; toss to coat. Reserve remaining dressing mixture.
• Place 1 fish fillet in center of each of 8 large pieces heavy-duty foil; top each with about 1 Tbsp. of the reserved dressing mixture. Cover with vegetable mixture. Bring up foil sides. Double fold top and ends to seal each packet, leaving room for heat circulation inside. Place in single layer in 15x10x1-inch pan.
• Bake 25 min. or until fish flakes easily with fork. Let stand 5 min.; cut slits in foil to release steam before opening packets.
