Ingredients

1 - 1¼ lbs. salmon cut into 4-5 oz. filets
2 Tbsp. oil avocado or olive
2 Tbsp. honey sugar, or pure maple syrup
1 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar
1 Tbsp. soy sauce or Tamari
½ tsp. ginger paste or finely minced fresh
2 cloves garlic
½ tsp. salt to taste
1-2 tsp. Sriracha sauce or other hot sauce

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
Marinate the Salmon: Add the oil, honey, vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, salt, and Sriracha sauce to a large bowl. Whisk until combined. Add the salmon fillets to the bowl, flesh-side down, and marinate for at least 20 minutes or up to an hour.
1 - 1¼ lbs. salmon, 2 Tbsp. oil, 2 Tbsp. honey, 1 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar, 1 Tbsp. soy sauce, ½ tsp. ginger paste, 2 cloves garlic, ½ tsp. salt, 1-2 tsp. Sriracha sauce
Add to Baking Dish: Place the salmon in a 13x9-inch baking dish with space between each filet. Brush half of the remaining marinade over the fillets using a pastry brush and reserve the rest.
Bake in Oven: Bake salmon in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, coating the fish with the remaining marinade halfway through. You’ll know the fish is done cooking when it flakes easily with a fork in the thickest portion.
Serve the salmon immediately with finely chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Enjoy!

Notes

*Use 1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce if you like less spice and use 2 teaspoons if you prefer more spice.

Meal Prep and Storage

How to prep ahead of time: Make the marinade and sauce a day or two early, if needed.
How to store: Keep leftover salmon in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.

How to freeze: Place in a freezer-safe airtight container and freeze for up to 3 months.

How to reheat: To avoid drying out the salmon, warm it back up at a lower temperature. Bake at 275°F, loosely covered in foil, for 7-19 minutes. Or, microwave at reduced power in 30-second intervals until warm.
