I have wanted to try an Asian fish recipe for quite some time. Salmon is one of my favorite types of fish so this went together perfectly. The recipe uses Asian flavors such as soy sauce, garlic, ginger and chili sauce. I had worried that the lime zest might be a little overpowering but it turns out it wasn’t at all. It is nearly the perfect combination for fish. You can either bake or grill the salmon. The weather has been pretty nice so I went with the outdoor grill. I served this recipe with fries but white rice will go great as well. Enjoy.

Very good but I would cut back on the lime and maybe use half?

I made this a few nights ago Bobby and it ROCKED. I tricked my girlfriend's younger brother by telling him it was chicken (he won't eat fish). Well, as long as he thought it was chicken, he loved it, came for seconds.
