Servings: persons

18 bamboo skewers (6-inch)
12 ounces salmon fillets, skin removed (and no bones of course)
4 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 tablespoons orange juice concentrate
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 clove garlic, minced or finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated finely or microplaned
3 tablespoons chili paste (use less if you prefer less heat)
4 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 -3 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

1
Soak the bamboo skewers for at least half an hour before using- you don't need them to catch fire under the grill!
2
Slice the salmon into thin strips- I did mine about 1-inch wide by 7-8inches in length.
3
Weave on to skewers (just like you would do with chicken) Combine the oyster sauce, orange concentrate, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, honey and sesame oil- make sure you stir this thoroughly, the honey needs to be well combined other wise you end up with a gloopy lump in the bowl!
4
You can make this ahead if you prefer and keep chilled.
5
Brush marinade onto salmon skewers and leave for 10 minutes or so, to allow flavours to absorb.
6
Heat your grill to medium, and then grill salmon for 1- 2 minutes on each side (do watch them though- they don't need to be overcooked) Brush a final slick of marinade onto them as you remove them from the grill and sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds.
7
Serve, and enjoy!
8
(now my mouth is watering!)

(This recipe also works well using a piece of salmon to be served an an entree- serve with a noodle based salad with lots of Thai ingredients of your choice!
