  • 2 x 150 g Salmon
  • 6 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon chilli powder
  • 2 Teaspoons (tsp) soy sauce (gluten free)
  • 1 Teaspoon (tsp) finely grated ginger

How to make it

Allow about 5 minutes to prepare, plus 10–30 minutes or 1–3 hours marinating. Oven cooking takes around 25 minutes at 200°C. The recorded air-fryer cooking time is 10–12 minutes.

  1. Mix the marinade

    Mix the lime juice, chilli powder, gluten-free soy sauce and grated ginger in the small bowl.

  2. Coat the salmon

    Place the salmon in the baking dish. Gently spoon about 75% of the marinade over the top. Turn the salmon over and pour the remaining marinade over the underside.

  3. Marinate

    Leave the salmon facing down in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 10–30 minutes, or 1–3 hours if you have more time.

  4. Bake in the oven

    After marinating, preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the dish in the preheated oven and cook for around 25 minutes. Cooking times vary with fillet size and appliance; check the fish is thoroughly cooked.
