Five Spice Salmon
I made this simple five spice salmon recently, don't know why I didn't think of using Chinese five spice to marinate salmon before. It was so simple to make and flavorful. I served it over noodles and vegetables.
Ingredients:
- 2 salmon filets (Wild Alaskan)
- about 1-2 tablespoon five spice
- a little olive oil
- one pack of Chinese egg noodles
- one cup of beans sprouts
- one cup of frozen mixed vegetables
- one carrot thinly chopped
- 2 tablespoon soy sauce
- one teaspoon ginger/garlic paste
- a dash of sesame oil
- 1/2 a sliced onion
- 2 eggs
Method:
- Coat the salmon in olive oil and five spice and marinate for 1 one
- then pan saute on medium high for 7-10 minutes until cooked
- meanwhile saute the onion in a little sesame oil and ginger/garlic paste, add 2 eggs and scramble into the mixture
- add the vegetables and soy sauce
- cook the noodles by boiling them for 5 minutes and mix with the vegetables
- serve with the salmon
- enjoy :-)
This looks great Rebecca. Good use of 5 spice. My fav way to use 5 spice is with tamari and garlic chili sauce and slather over pork joint (butt or shoulder blade)it is HEAVENLY.
ReplyDeleteGood to know five spice works well on Salmon...the salmon look very delicious.
ReplyDeleteI love the flavor of 5 spice powder!

I usually use it in a broth type soup - but I love your idea of using it with salmon.
ReplyDeleteI ADORE five spice powder and it's semi-sweet flavor profile would pair perfectly with salmon! Delicious.
ReplyDeleteSounds light and perfectly seasoned!
ReplyDeleteI recently did a five-spice salmon and it turned out soooo well!! It's the perfect blend to stand up to salmon's strong flavor!
ReplyDeleteFive spice powder is good on most meats, especially pork. I'll have to try it on salmon next. Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteoh how lovely. i have actually never used five spice before, can you believe that! this looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteFive spice and salmon sounds like a match made in heaven! I don't use this spice enough - it's good on squash too! Hope you had a happy new year Rebecca!
ReplyDeletethis looks delicious, rebecca! and i finally know what chinese 5 spices are after completing my dietetic internship. :)
ReplyDeleteI always love when you post Salmon recipes that are simple and flavorful! Looks Delish!
ReplyDeleteCan you come make this for me for dinner tonight?
ReplyDeleteThis looks excellent! I hate to say but I don't think I have ever used 5 spice. Goes to show I need to get my bum in the kitchen more!!!
ReplyDeleteFive spice has an intriguing flavor, but I have to be careful not to use too much or it's too hot for me. Love the idea of using it with the salmon for an Asian twist.

I loooove Chinese Five Spice! The best part about it is that it's so versatile!! I've used it in dessert before, and it can be used in so many savory applications as well, like this lovely salmon :)
ReplyDeleteSimple perfection! I have used a similar combo of spices with salmon and agree it a terrific taste. GREG

ReplyDeleteI eat a lot of salmon, Rebecca. Usually just broiled simply with lemon, salt and pepper. But every once in a while I'd like to try something new. The five spice seasoning sounds wonderful. Always difficult to cook creatively for one. :)
