Easy Peasy Soy-Maple Salmon

Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets skin off
  • 3~4 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 thumb grated ginger
  • 4 tbsp soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup or any sweetener
  • 1 tsp sesame oil

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Line a baking dish with foil and place salmon in the center. Fold up the edges so the foil forms a little nest. 
  • Mix all the other ingredients together. Taste to see if it is to your preference, add soy sauce or maple syrup accordingly if it is too sweet or salty.
  • Pour mixture over the salmon, making sure if doesn't spill out of the foil pack. Pinch the edges of the foil pack together & seal it.
  • Bake in the oven for 15~20 min. I found that the perfect time for me is 17 minutes, but it depends on your oven.
  • You can choose at this point to open the foil packet and broil the salmon at the end if you want a bit of a char. I like my salmon soft and tender so I don't usually.
  • Serve with rice and roasted veggies.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

This recipe can be easily doubled for meal prep. Just make sure you have enough sauce to coat the salmon!
