Delicious Asian Salmon Recipe for a Flavorful Meal

Ingredients

Servings:
8
  • 4 fillets salmon
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodium preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon ginger (freshly grated)
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons green onion (sliced, for garnish)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (toasted, for garnish)
  • 1 cup broccoli florets (steamed)
  • 1 cup jasmine rice (cooked, for serving)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, honey, and rice vinegar.

    Adjust honey to taste for sweetness.
  2. Marinate the Salmon

    Place salmon fillets in the marinade and let sit for at least 30 minutes.

    For best flavor, marinate longer if possible.
  3. Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Using a conventional oven gives a better texture.
  4. Bake the Salmon

    Place marinated salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 12-15 minutes.

    Check for doneness; salmon should flake easily.
  5. Prepare the Plate

    Serve the salmon with steamed broccoli and jasmine rice.

    Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds for presentation.
