- 1 ¼ - 1 ½ lbs. salmon
- 2 Tbsp. miso paste red
- 1 clove garlic finely minced
- 1 tsp. fresh ginger paste or minced
- 1 Tbsp. soy sauce or Tamari
- 1 Tbsp. rice vinegar
- 1 Tbsp. brown sugar or honey
- 1 Tbsp. oil avocado or olive
- 1 tsp. toasted sesame oil
- Sesame seeds toasted, optional
- Green onions sliced, optional
Preheat the oven to 425℉.
Cut salmon into four 5 to 6-ounce portions leaving the skin intact.
Add the miso paste, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, and oils together in a large bowl. Add the salmon pieces, flesh-side down and coat completely in the sauce. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
Place the marinated salmon skin-side down into a 7"x10" or 9"x13"-inch baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray at least ½-inch apart. Brush any remaining marinade over top with a pastry brush.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 12-14 minutes. Remove the foil and then bake for an additional 4-5 minutes, uncovered.
Serve immediately with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Enjoy!
