Asian Chimichurri Salmon Recipe Video
I hope you enjoyed the Sheet Pan Asian Chimichuri Salmon Recipe Video! I have been making my own recipe videos since mid February and posting them to Facebook but have yet to include them in a post (long story) but am excited to start adding them! I’ve already added the video to my Baja Fish Tacos and will continue to add them throughout the week. You can check out some of my videos on FB HERE. And while you’re visiting, be sure to follow my FB Page if you are a true foodie because I share tons of awesome recipes from other bloggers and networks! Now onto today delectable recipe! This Sheet Pan Asian Chimichuri Salmon is inspired by two of my favorite previously posted recipes – my Grilled Asian Chimichurri Steak and my Sheet Pan Fajita Salmon with Cilantro Lime Butter – mash them together and you have exquisitely delicious Asian marinated salmon smothered in flavor bursting Cilantro Basil Chimichurri baked on a sheet pan with all your sides. In other words, you have heavenly deliciousness with uber convenience and no extra sides to prepare! (see my other Sheet Pan/One Pot Wonders HERE) The star of this Sheet Pan Chimichurri Salmon is the Cilantro Basil Chimichurri. I am giddily obsessed with it – can we say FLAVOR?!! Traditional Chimichurri is a South American sauce typically comprised of parsley, garlic, red wine vinegar and chili pepper flakes and adds a dynamic, fresh, often spicy flavor to anything it adorns. To play with the flavor profile, I swapped parsley for cilantro, basil and mint, swapped red pepper flakes for jalapeno, red wine vinegar for rice wine vinegar and spiked it all with ginger, hoisin, fish sauce and lime juice. The resulting Asian Chimichurri is bright, fresh earthy, and soooooo flavorful! Now, don’t be scared off by the length of ingredients for the Asian Chimichurri. They all get dumped into your food processor so it literally take MINUTES to make! And every ingredient is hand selected to make the most dynamic Cilantro Basli Chimichurri ever that we use in the marinade, with the peas and again to finish – so it is well worth the ingredients and the minutes it takes to whip up :). Once we make our Asian Chimichurri, we immediately put it to work by adding ½ cup to some soy sauce to create a simple, quick marinade. Many Sheet Pan Fish recipes don’t marinate the fish/chicken, but I find this leaves all the flavor on the outside instead of seeping through and through – and we want flavor through and through. Plus, while your fish marinates for just 30-60 minutes, you can get a jump on chopping your pineapple and trimming your snap peas. Next, add a little brown sugar and olive oil to your pineapple and roast for 5 minutes. Add your snap peas and toss them with some more Asian Chimichurri, olive oil, salt and pepper followed by our salmon and bake for 15 minutes or so and out comes crazy flavorful, savory seeping Asian Chimichurri Salmon, sweet roasted pineapple and crisp tender snap peas – all of which are exquisitely delicious on their own but together comprise the perfect bite after bite after bite.
