Salmon Satay With Orange-Jasmine Rice
Ingredients
1 cup water
1 cup orange juice
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 cup jasmine rice
1 1/2 lb salmon fillets (skin removed; thawed, if needed)
8 (10-inch) bamboo skewers
1/3 cup sesame ginger marinade
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon peanut butter
Steps
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Combine in medium saucepan, water, orange juice, and seasoned salt; cover and bring to a boil on high for rice.
- Stir rice into boiling mixture and return to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low; cook 15 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
- Cut salmon into eight equal pieces and thread lengthwise onto skewers (wash hands). Combine in small bowl, marinade, sesame oil and peanut butter; reserve one-third of the mixture for final step. Brush one-half of the remaining mixture over both sides of salmon.
- Arrange skewers on baking sheet; bake 2 minutes. Turn skewers over and brush with remaining one-half of marinade; bake 2-4 more minutes or until flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. (Discard any marinade that has been in contact with raw salmon.)
- Use reserved marinade as a dipping sauce. Fluff rice with fork and serve.
