Ingredients

  • 2 limes - juiced
  • 1 orange - zest and juice
  • 2 tablespoon water
  • ¼ cup freshly chopped parsley
  • ¼ cup freshly chopped cilantro
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 6 cloves garlic - minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoon sweet chili sauce - (store-bought or homemade) see notes
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon red chili flakes - (optional)
  • 4 salmon fillets - (wild-caught is best)
  • 1 red bell pepper - seeded and chopped
  • 1 orange bell pepper - seeded and chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper - seeded and chopped
  • 1 onion - peeled and cut into wedges
  • To garnish: additional sweet chili sauce, cilantro and lime

Instructions

  • Preheat oven. Preheat oven to high broil and line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil. Set aside.
  • Prepare marinade. In a medium bowl whisk together the lime juice, orange zest and juice, water, parsley, cilantro, olive oil, minced garlic, soy sauce, salt, sweet chili sauce, cumin, and red chili flakes to combine.
  • Transfer salmon and vegetables to the baking sheet. Transfer the salmon fillets, bell pepper, and onion to the baking sheet and arrange in a single layer (use a second baking sheet if needed).
  • Coat with marinade. Pour approximately half of the prepared marinade over the salmon fillets and bell peppers. Carefully toss the vegetables to coat and flip the salmon over and back to fully coat in the marinade.
  • Bake. Transfer baking sheet(s) to the oven and broil for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until the peppers are just starting to char around the edges and the salmon is fully cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F. Rotate the pan once during cooking.
  • Garnish and serve. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and serve immediately with the remaining marinade.
