Recipe Pro-Tips
For the best tasting salmon buy frozen salmon filets. Any "fresh" salmon you purchase in the store has been previously frozen, any time the salmon is left out thawing makes the fish taste much fishier. I love Wild Alaskan Co Salmon, you can use code avocadoskillet for 20% off your first box here.
This recipe makes 2 servings but feel free to double or halve.
If you are allergic to gluten use tamari instead of soy sauce.
To cut down on the cooking time prep and marinate the salmon the night before, this way you can just throw it in the oven at dinner time.
Recipe FAQS
Yes, wild caught salmon is lower in fat and higher in essential minerals than farm raised.
This salmon goes well with any veggie. I paired mine with roasted zucchini and carrots.
