If you know me, you know that nine times out of ten, if salmon is on the menu at a restaurant, I’m ordering it. Salmon is flavorful but still leaves you feeling lightweight, which has its purpose. Trust me, I love a good steak and potatoes meal, but sometimes you just need salmon.
Despite loving salmon so much, I had never really cooked it for myself. Part of my hesitation was that I didn’t know where to get it. There’s a lot of fishiness going on in the seafood industry (no pun intended) when it comes to sustainability and ecologically safe practices. Luckily, I’ve found my solution.
Because I’m not a salmon master yet, here are two ways to cook it that are pretty easy yet ridiculously delicious.
Level: Easy
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 15-20 minutes
Total Time: 20-25 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
2 large filets salmon
1/4 cup Asian Ginger marinade
1/4 cup Sweet Mustard marinade
salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, and line a baking sheet with tin foil or parchment paper.
- Place salmon on baking sheet.
- Sprinkle salmon with salt and pepper.
- Pour both sauces into two separate, small dishes.
- Using a paint brush or cooking brush, spread Asian Ginger sauce on one filet of salmon.
- Repeat this process with the Sweet Mustard sauce.
- Place salmon in the oven.
- Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through or to your liking.
- Serve with your choice of side dish. I paired the Asian Ginger salmon with black rice, and the Sweet Mustard salmon with quinoa.
