These take minutes to make and add a really nice crust to the salmon.
Sesame seeds are loaded with calcium and iron and salmon is rich in omega 3 and helps to lower inflammation in the body.
Sesame Salmon Sticks
Next, get a plate and place the sesame seeds on it.
Carefully coat the salmon pieces in the sesame seeds and slide a few chunks onto a skewer.
Place onto a lined baking sheet and bake for 4-5 minutes per side (8-10 minutes total).
They can take on a slight golden edge and the fish should be moist and cooked through.
Method
Heat the oven to 180C.
Mix together the soy sauce, maple syrup and dijon mustard.
If your salmon has skin on remove it and then cut up the salmon into chunks (about 1 inch pieces) and add to the soy mix and leave to marinate for a few minutes.
