Ingredients

  • 1/2 tsp Chilli Flakes
  • 1/2 tsp Lime Zest
  • 1 tbsp Lime Juice
  • 1 tsp grated Ginger

Burger

  • 2 x COBS Bread Herb & Garlic Gourmet Hamburger Buns
  • 3 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 2 x 5-6oz Wild Salmon Fillets
  • 2-4 leaves Organic Butter Lettuce
  • 1 Red Onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 Seedless Cucumber, thinly shaved/peeled

Directions

Combine all ingredients for the marinade in a food container. Add salmon fillets and leave to marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes.

If you are cooking on a grill follow these instructions:

  1. Turn grill on high. Brush grills with a bit of oil.
  2. Once the grill reaches 350F or higher, place the salmon fillets diagonally (45 degree angle) on the grill, skin side up.
  3. For thick fillets, cook this side for 1.5 minutes, or cook for 1 minute for thinner fillets.
  4. Rotate the fillets 90 degrees to complete the cross-hatch grill marks, cook for 30-45 seconds.
  5. Flip salmon fillets (skin side up). Again, diagonally on the grill (45 degree angle), cook for 1 minute for thicker fillets, 45 seconds for thinner fillets.
  6. Complete the cross-hatch grill marks on this side by rotating the fillets on a 90 degree angle, cook for 30 seconds. Take off the grill presentation side up. Add pinch of salt and pepper to the salmon fillets

If you are cooking in a pan, follow these instructions:

  1. Add 2 tbsp cooking oil to a non-stick frying pan. Turn on element to med-high heat.
  2. While the oil is heating up, remove salmon fillets from marinade.
  3. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the salmon fillets skin side up on the pan using a tong (some oil may splash a bit). Cook this side of the fillet for 2.5 minutes for thick fillets and 2 minutes for thin fillets.
  4. Flip salmon fillets with tongs to cook the other side. Cook this side for 2 minutes for thick fillets and 1.5 minutes for thin fillets.
  5. Take fillets off the pan and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  4. Add cooked salmon fillets with the skin side down.
  5. Add 2-3 thin onion rings on top of the salmon fillets.
