Salmon with Raspberry Lime Sauce

I love to serve salmon for dinner, but my children are getting tired of the maple soy glaze that we typically use. When they started groaning the last time I bought salmon, I came up with this raspberry lime sauce to mix things up. Everyone loved it.
This delicious topping adds a nice sweetness to the savory salmon. If you don’t have raspberry jam, you can use 1/2 cup fresh raspberries to make the sauce.

Amazing! Incredible!! Fantastic!!! Deliciousness Personified!!!!
Yes, I really did love it that much!
Thanks for sharing.
I tweaked it somewhat, for no particular reason. I didn’t use the vinegar. I used a mix of 100% mixed-fruit preserves and frozen raspberries, along with the lime and lemon juice, and honey.
I also combined this with my old favorite: a lemon-butter-garlic sauce.
The timing and temperature you provided was spot on. And I turned the salmon over about halfway through the 20 minutes, in addition to adding small amounts of salt, pepper, and chili powder, and basting it in the sauce near the end.
I couldn’t stop eating it and my family loved it, too!
Thanks,
Lorenzo
I want to try both this one and the maple soy recipe! I love simple recipes that allow the natural flavors of the food to come out 🙂
I hope you like them. Simple is the key word around here!
Left out the vinegar and used raspberry fruit spread.. (No sugar).. To die for
I’m glad you liked it! Thanks for letting me know.
This looks and sounds amazing. We love salmon around here, too. Thanks for the idea!
Thank you! It’s a different twist on salmon – I hope you like it!
