Ingredients
1.5 lbs salmon fillet (skin-on recommended)
2 tbsp fresh ginger (grated)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
1 tsp honey
1 lime (zested and juiced)
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh cilantro (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C)
In a small bowl, mix grated ginger, minced garlic, olive oil, soy sauce, honey, lime zest, and juice
Season salmon with salt and pepper, then brush with marinade
Place salmon skin-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet
Bake for 15 minutes or until golden and flakes easily
Garnish with fresh cilantro and additional lime if desired

For extra crispiness, bake with the skin on
Substitute 1 tsp ground ginger for fresh if needed
Use Tamari instead of soy sauce for gluten-free
Serve with steamed rice or roasted vegetables
