Baked Salmon with Asian Glaze

Cooked salmon fillet with herbs on a bed of white rice on a black plate.

Wild salmon is fresh, flaky and so delicious. This one is marinated in an Asian inspired glaze with sweet and salty flavors. Let's get started.


What you'll need: Serves 4
1-2 pounds wild caught salmon filet (never farmed)

For the marinade:
1/4 cup soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
2 minced garlic cloves
1 Tbsp dijon mustard
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tbsp honey
2 Tbsp olive oil

How to make it:
Dab the filet with a paper towel to absorb excess moisture.

Slice into equal portion sizes.

Mix up the marinade in a shallow bowl-plate big enough to fit the salmon pieces.

Lay the salmon meat side down and marinate in the fridge for 1 hour to overnight.

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay each marinated salmon piece skin side down on the sheet.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until opaque in color. When it's done, the meat will gracefully flake away with a fork.

Serve over a bed of jasmine rice and with your favorite veggie.

Enjoy!
