2 servings
40 minutes
Grilled salmon Kuban style is a refined dish inspired by Russian culinary traditions and southern aromas. Kuban cuisine is famous for its combination of fresh natural ingredients and fragrant herbs, making this recipe special. Salmon fillet marinated in a refreshing mix of olive and sesame oils with lime juice absorbs rich flavors of spices and citrus notes. The grill gives the fish a crispy crust and tender, juicy texture. Basting with orange juice every 10 minutes adds caramel notes to the flavor. Serving on lettuce leaves with soy sauce, cherry tomatoes, and sesame completes the picture, creating a harmonious balance of sweetness, acidity, and spice. This dish is perfect for festive dinners as well as cozy family gatherings.
