  1. About 2 hours before cooking, combine all the marinade ingredients.

  2. Smother the salmon fillets with the marinade and set aside in the fridge for 2 hours (turning in the marinade at least once).

  3. Preheat the grill.

  4. Preheat a large frying pan and heat until smoking. Drizzle over a little oil and add the salmon fillets - skin-side down. (Make sure that you brush off as much of the marinade as possible). Fry for 5 to 6 minutes.

  5. Place the frying pan under the grill (keeping the frying pan handle away from the heat source!) and grill for 3 to 4 minutes.

  6. Wrap the fillets in foil and set aside.

  7. Pour the marinade through a sieve into a small saucepan and heat gently. Bring to the boil and reduce until thick and sticky.

  8. Serve with rice, greens, the sticky sauce and a salsa.
