This is the type of recipe that converts fish skeptics into bona fide believers, and all it takes is a glaze that you can whip up in a few minutes. The fattiness of salmon pairs perfectly with assertive spicy and sweet flavors, and this recipe has both. Round this meal out with roasted broccoli (it can roast in the same oven as the salmon) and a side of couscous. Plus, salmon has health benefits like no other fish or meat on any menu: on top, of course, of being a great source of protein, potassium, and B vitamins, salmon is also one of the best ways to get omega -3 fatty acids and is known to help with weight control and reduce the risk of heart disease. This dish is flavorful, delicious, and a healthy way to get your salmon fill. So, has this sweet chili-glazed salmon recipe converted you yet, fish skeptics? Good.
