Health benefits of Broiled Sweet Chili Sesame Soy Salmon

Salmon is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are crucial for reducing inflammation and promoting cardiovascular health. It is also rich in vitamin D, which helps regulate insulin levels and improve mood, both of which are important for managing PCOS symptoms. Additionally, salmon provides a good amount of B vitamins, particularly B12, which supports energy production and helps maintain healthy nerve function. Including salmon in your diet can help balance hormones, reduce inflammation, and support overall well-being. Sesame seeds help with progesterone balance. Lignans found in in sesame seeds help to prevent excess estrogen production.

Ingredients

1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp sweet chili sauce
2 tsps sesame seeds
16 oz boneless salmon
1 tsp ginger
2 tbsps soy sauce

Instructions

1. Combine sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, finely chopped fresh ginger root and sesame seeds together and marinate thin cuts of salmon in the fridge. (5-15 minutes). Leave some marinade free to top salmon with when completed.

2. Place salmon (skinned, as this method will readily flake the skin), on foil lined pan (easy cleanup).

3. Broil on high on lowest rung for approximately 10 minutes.

4. Remove when no longer pink, fish should flake easily, but will be pleasingly moist.

5. Top with remaining marinade and serve with sides.

6. Note: this makes 4 oz salmon per person, but it is well flavored and should be paired with salad or rice side to create a balanced meal.
