Ingredients
Scale
- 2 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbsp honey (or maple syrup)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil to create the marinade.
- Place salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet and pour half of the marinade over them. Let sit for 15 minutes.
- Bake the salmon for 15-20 minutes until it flakes easily with a fork.
- Brush the remaining marinade on the salmon during the last few minutes of baking for extra flavor.
- Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Notes
- For a vegan option, substitute honey with maple syrup.
- Consider adding sesame seeds or red pepper flakes for an extra kick.
