  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • Juice of 1 lime

For the Sambal Salad:

  • 2 cups shredded green cabbage

  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons sambal oelek (chili paste)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Salmon: In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, garlic, ginger, and lime juice. Marinate salmon steaks in the mixture for 20–30 minutes.
  2. Prepare the Sambal Salad: In a large bowl, combine cabbage, carrots, cucumber, and cilantro. In a separate bowl, mix sambal oelek, rice vinegar, vegetable oil, and sugar to create the dressing. Toss the salad with the dressing and refrigerate.

  4. Serve: Plate the grilled salmon with a side of sambal salad.

Notes

  • Adjust the spiciness of the dish by controlling the amount of sambal oelek used.
