Baked salmon with ginger soy glaze

Method

Make the glaze

  • In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, lime juice, and sesame oil.

Prepare salmon

  • Place salmon fillets on a baking tray.
  • Spoon over most of the glaze, reserving a little for finishing.

Bake

  • Cook in a preheated oven at 200°C (180°C fan) for 12–15 minutes, until salmon is cooked through and flaky.

Serve

  • Drizzle with the reserved glaze, scatter with spring onion, chilli, and fresh coriander.
  • Sprinkle over SUCSEED Immunity for a delicious crunch.
  • Pair with steamed greens and brown rice.

Why this works

  • The ginger-soy-honey glaze gives a sweet-salty punch that lifts the salmon.
  • Adding SUCSEED on top creates a nutty crunch while boosting fibre, protein, and botanicals.
  • Quick, nourishing, and special enough for a dinner that feels “restaurant-level” but cooks in 20 minutes.

Vegetarian Adaptation

Swap salmon for:

  • Firm tofu (2 blocks, pressed and cut into thick slabs) or
  • Aubergine (2 medium, sliced lengthways into thick steaks)

Adaptation tips:

  • For tofu → press for 15 mins, then marinate in the glaze for at least 20 mins before baking.
  • For aubergine → brush slices generously with the glaze before baking; they soak up flavour beautifully.
  • Cooking time is similar: 200°C for 20–25 mins, flipping halfway, until golden and caramelised.

Why this works (nutritionally)

  • Salmon: rich in omega-3 (EPA & DHA) to support heart health, brain function, and reduce inflammation.
  • Ginger: supports digestion and has natural anti-inflammatory and immune-supporting properties.
  • Garlic: contains antimicrobial compounds that help support immune defence and overall health.
  • SUCSEED Immunity blend: adds fibre, plant protein, and key nutrients like zinc and selenium, alongside botanicals to support immune and gut health.
  • Spring onion & chilli: contribute polyphenols and plant compounds that support gut diversity and overall resilience.
  • Brown rice & greens (to serve): provide fibre and complex carbohydrates for sustained energy and microbiome support.
