Ingredients
- 2 pounds salmon
The Marinade
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 tsp brown sugar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (less if you don't like spice)
- 1/4 tsp dry mustard
- 1/8 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
- Whisk together all the marinade ingredients
- Pour the marinade mixture into a large baggy or (shallow container with a lid) then add the uncooked salmon
- Refrigerate the salmon in the marinade for 30 minutes to 2+ hours
- Remove the salmon from the marinade
- If baking, bake at 400 degrees F for 10-15 minutes or until thickest part flakes with a fork. If grilling, place in a grill basket and grill on each side for about 5 minutes (or until the thickest part of the fish flakes with a fork).
Notes
Note: To grill instead of bake, place the salmon in a fish basket and grill for 10 minutes per inch of thickness (5 minutes each side) or when the thickest part just flakes with a fork; turn halfway through cooking
