with Sweet Chili Cucumber Slaw, Toasted Peanuts & Lime
Flaky pan-seared salmon fillets are served over fragrant cilantro-lime jasmine rice. You'll top the fish and rice with a fresh, crunchy cabbage slaw with cucumber ribbons, toasted peanuts, and cilantro all tossed in a sweet and tangy chili-lime dressing. Finish the dish with a super-crispy fried salmon skin garnish for crunch and restaurant-style flair.

• Wash and dry produce. • In a small pot, combine rice, 1 ¼ cups water (2 ¼ cups for 4 servings), and a large pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until tender, 15-20 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
• While rice cooks, place peanuts in a medium dry, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until golden brown and fragrant, 2-4 minutes. • Turn off heat; transfer to a small bowl. Wipe out pan. • Once peanuts are cool enough to handle, roughly chop.
• Zest and quarter lime. Trim and discard root end from lettuce; halve lengthwise, then thinly slice crosswise into bite-size pieces. Trim cucumber; using a peeler, shave lengthwise into ribbons (discard any ribbons that are solely cucumber skin). Roughly chop cilantro.
• Pat salmon dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. TIP: Dry the salmon thoroughly to achieve crispy skin! • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for peanuts over medium-high heat. Add one piece of salmon to pan, skin side down, and press down with the back of a spatula for 10 seconds. Repeat with remaining salmon. Cook, undisturbed, until mostly cooked through, 5-7 minutes; flip and cook until opaque and cooked through, 1-2 minutes more. (You may need to work in batches for 4 servings.) • Turn off heat. Transfer to a plate, skin sides up. Reserve pan.
• While salmon cooks, in a large bowl, whisk together chili sauce, vinegar, a large drizzle of olive oil, juice from one lime wedge, and as much Sriracha as you like (for 4 servings, use two large drizzles of olive oil and juice from two lime wedges). • Add coleslaw mix, lettuce, cucumber ribbons, peanuts, half the cilantro, salt, and pepper to bowl. Toss until combined.
• Once salmon is cool enough to handle, use a butter knife to gently separate skin from salmon (start at one end, shimmying the knife between the flesh and the skin until skin is removed). Gently scrape off any large pieces of salmon stuck to skin (some small bits are OK). • Heat pan used for salmon over medium heat; add salmon skin, cut sides down. Cook, pressing down with a spatula on any spots that still need crisping, 20-30 seconds per side. TIP: It's OK if the skin doesn't appear fully crispy yet; it'll crisp as it cools! • Transfer crispy salmon skin to a paper-towel-lined plate. Pat both sides with paper towels until completely dry.
• Fluff rice with a fork; stir in lime zest and remaining cilantro. Taste and season with salt if desired. • Divide rice between shallow bowls. Top with salmon (cut sides down) and as much salad as you like. Spoon any remaining dressing over rice. Garnish with crispy salmon skin and serve with remaining lime wedges. ***Fish is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.***
