Notes
- You can marinate it overnight in the fridge, or freeze the marinating salmon to enjoy at a later date. Just defrost the day before you want to eat it in the fridge so it is fully thawed before cooking.
- For a gluten free option, choose gluten free soy sauce.
- You can use other noodles, such as lo mein or egg noodles, if desired.
- The provided nutrition information does not include any added sodium from seasoning to taste, any optional ingredients, and it does not take brands into account. Feel free to calculate it yourself using this calculator or by adding the recipe to Yummly.
