I have shared a few salmon recipes in my previous blogs, which you can refer here. Salmon -is packed with omega-3s is easily available in fillet form from food markets. It is a quick option to prepare healthy and tasty recipes to go for the Indian and international recipe dishes. The herbal touch from the thyme used in this preparation gives an extra taste and aroma for the juicy broiled salmon.

- Lemon juice : 1 Lemon
- Pepper powder : 1 ½ Tbl-sp
- Garlic paste : 1 Tbl-sp
- Salt for taste
- Oil : 2 Tbl-sp
- Oil for sprinkling
Method
- Cut the fish into medium size pieces or according to your preference (don’t make it too thin).
- In a bowl add all the masala ingredients and mix well and make a paste (May springle some water if the masala is too thick).
- Add the fish and thoroughly mix to coat the masalas well in to the fish pieces.
- Keep the marinated fish into the fridge for about an hour or more.
- Set the oven into broil option for high about 12 minutes.
- In a baking tray, apply some oil and spread it well
- Keep the fish into the dish in a single layer and sprinkle some oil to every fish
- Broil it for about 10 minutes or until brown color (may check after 6 minutes).
- Take the tray out and flip the fish and sprinkle some oil into the pieces and broil it for another ~10 minutes or until the color becomes brown .
Tips:-
- The broiling time may differ from oven to oven. So after 6 minutes open the oven and check the fish .
- The quantity of ingredients may be varied for individual taste.
- Use thick salmon for broiling, that will give the fish more juicy and tasty. Note the fish itself oozes some oil.
