Ingredients
For The Marinade:
- 1 cup teriyaki sauce
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
- 4 cloves garlic , minced
- 3 Tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 2 Tablespoons honey
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 pound boneless , skinless salmon (or 4 salmon "steaks")
For Garnish:
- 1 Tablespoons sesame seeds
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro , chopped
Instructions
-
In a bowl, mix together the teriyaki sauce, grated ginger, garlic cloves, brown sugar, honey and olive oil, until sugar has dissolved and ingredients are well combined.
-
Put the piece (or pieces) of salmon in a baking dish or a large Ziploc bag. Add the marinade to the container and coat the salmon on both sides. Refrigerate the salmon for at least 1 hour (I marinated mine all day). Turn the salmon over several times during refrigeration (if using a container).
-
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Spray a baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. Remove the salmon from the marinade and place into cooking pan. (If you are using salmon with the skin ON, then place in baking pan, skin side down.
-
Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Times will vary, due to different thicknesses of salmon. When done, the salmon should flake easily. (Our salmon took 20 minutes to reach that point) Serve, with a side of rice or quinoa, and a great veggie. Enjoy!
