Honey Ginger Baked Salmon

As we continue w/ our goal of 2 seafood dinners each week, we’re continuing to try creating new recipes.

This one’s quite yummy!

I initially served this dish w/ my Garlic Sautéed Green Beans.

Honey Ginger Baked Salmon Recipe

Ingredients

• 4 (5 oz) salmon filets
• 3 Tbsp coconut aminos (divided: 2 Tbsp for marinade + 1 Tbsp for glaze)
• 2 Tbsp honey
• 1 Tbsp avocado oil
• 1 Tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 rounded tsp minced garlic
• 2/3 tsp ground ginger
• 1 pinch (about 1/16 tsp) pink Himalayan salt

Directions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together marinade: 2 Tbsp coconut aminos, 1 Tbsp avocado oil, 1 Tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 rounded tsp minced garlic. Don’t wash this bowl yet – you’ll need it again.
2. Place 4 (5 oz) salmon in a gallon-size Zip-lock bag then pour marinade mixture over it.
3. Seal bag and gently move salmon around until well-coated.
4. Chill in refrigerator (anywhere from 15 mins to overnight depending on your scheduling needs).
5. Preheat oven to 350^◦ F.
6. Transfer 4 (5 oz) marinated salmon filets to a 9″ x 13″ glass baking dish, evenly spaced, then pour the marinade remaining in the bag over salmon.
7. Bake on center rack for 20 mins.
8. In same small bowl, whisk together glaze: 1 Tbsp coconut aminos, 2 Tbsp honey, 2/3 tsp ground ginger, and 1/16 tsp pink Himalayan salt.
9. After 20 mins in the oven, remove from oven and drizzle glaze over salmon.
10. Return to oven (on a high broil setting if you have it) and bake on top rack for 5-8 mins, until golden-brown and crispy at your desired doneness.
