Ingredients
- 2 pounds salmon filets
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup water
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 small Jalapeño seeded and finely diced, optional
Instructions
- Add salmon to a large ziptop bag.
- In a small mixing bowl add soy sauce, water, sesame oil, dark brown sugar, ginger, garlic, and jalapeno pepper. Whisk to combine and pour over salmon.
- Close the bag and gently move the salmon in the bag so the marinade is covering all the salmon.
- Let the salmon marinate in the refrigerator for up to 45 minutes.
Notes
- Salmon should always be placed in the fridge for marinating. Use a zippered bag or an airtight container and ensure entire filet is covered by the marinade.
- Additional flavors (like pineapple juice or orange juice) can be added if desired.
- The leftover marinade should be discarded or cooked. It can be brushed over the fish as it’s cooking (as long as the fish hasn't finished cooking).
- Cooking time will vary based on the thickness and the shape of the filet. Flatter/thinner filets will cook quicker, while others (up to 1" thick) may need extra time. The following are guidelines, do not overcook the fish.
- To Grill: Place marinated salmon on a grill set at medium-high. Cook about 7-8 minutes per side.
- To Bake: Place salmon on a baking sheet covered and bake at 400°F for 12-15 minutes, broil 1-2 minutes until the top is opaque and the fish is cooked through.
- To Broil: Place fish directly under the broiler for 5 minutes. Turn over and broil another 4-6 minutes or until the filet is browned on the outside and just opaque inside.
