Sesame Ginger Salmon

Ingredients

¼ cup olive oil

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

2 tablespoons sesame oil

2 tablespoons brown sugar

2 cloves garlic, pressed

1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger

1 tablespoon sesame seeds

4 green onions, thinly sliced

4 5-ounce salmon filets

FOR THE HONEY GINGER GLAZE:

2 tablespoons honey

1 teaspoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon sesame oil

½ teaspoon Sriracha, or more, to taste

½ teaspoon grated fresh ginger

½ teaspoon sesame seeds

Directions

To make the glaze, whisk together honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, Sriracha, ginger and sesame seeds in a small bowl; set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, sesame seeds and green onions.

In a gallon size Ziploc bag or large bowl, combine ginger marinade and salmon filets; marinate for at least 30 minutes to overnight, turning the bag occasionally.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick spray.

Place salmon filets along with the marinade onto prepared baking dish and bake until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes.

Serve salmon immediately with honey ginger glaze.
