Sweet Chili Soy Glazed Foil Baked Salmon

We love sweet and slightly spicy asian inspired dishes- and there is no dish that better compliments sweet chili than a quick baked salmon.

Today we are sharing our new favorite asian-inspired fish dish – in a easy to clean foil pouch!

This Sweet Chili Soy Glazed Salmon in Foil recipe is incredibly simple, gorgeous to look at, doesn't spread a fishy smell through your house, and is suited to a dinner party – it is elegant, but incredibly easy!

Foil pouches are the solid way to cook fish quickly and easily- and keep cleaning to nothing.

Plus, cooking fish in a foil pouch keeps the house from smelling fishy (like pan-frying can sometimes do) and helps marinades soak in without spilling all over!

This recipe is so simple- its place and drizzle.

Seriously!!!

First off, we're going to drizzle the fish in soy sauce to let it sink in, and then finish it off with the sweet chili glaze.

After your fish is glazed, fold a foil pouch over it, and pop it in the oven until it is opaque, or even until the fat releases slightly. That's it!

We love this recipe because it has a tiny hint of spice – so our kids are good eating it.

It is also a touch sweet (let's face it, sweet fish sounds plain gross…), with good hints of salty soy and garlic.
