Grilled Salmon with Honey Chipotle

Salmon is packed with omega-3 acids, vital for brain health and the nervous system. Omega-3 fatty acids also help to maintain healthy cholesterol levels.

Ingredients

For the sauce:

  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted

  • 2 tablespoons honey

  • 1 tablespoon chili powder

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

For the parcels:

  • 4 salmon filets (approx. 6 ounces/170grams each)

  • 1 zucchini, chopped

  • 1 eggplant, chopped

  • 1 red onion, chopped

  • salt & pepper

  • 4 lime wedges for serving

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F)

  2. Place the sauce ingredients into a small bowl, whisk together, and set aside.

  3. Season both sides of the salmon filets with salt.

  4. Add the zucchini, eggplant, and red onion to a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper.

  5.  Lay four pieces of kitchen foil on a flat surface big enough to hold the salmon and vegetables. Divide the vegetables equally between each piece of kitchen foil, placing the vegetables on one-half of the foil close to the center. Next, place a salmon filet on the other half, close to the center. Drizzle the salmon and vegetables with the sauce. Then fold and seal the edges of the foil to create a packet.

  6.  Place the parcels onto a baking sheet and cook in the oven for 12-15 minutes until the salmon has cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

  7. Serve each parcel with a wedge of lime.
