Salmon Marinade
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds salmon 1 side or 4 fillets
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey or pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the salmon by patting it dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps the marinade stick better.
- Create the marinade by whisking together olive oil, soy sauce, honey or maple syrup, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and black pepper in a bowl until well combined.
- Marinate the salmon by placing it in a zip-top bag and pouring the marinade over it. Seal the bag tightly after squeezing out the air, then refrigerate.
- Let the salmon marinate. For best results, marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes or in the refrigerator for up to 1 hour.
- Cook the salmon to perfection. If using an oven, bake at 400°F until it reaches the desired doneness. For grilling, cook on a hot grill until the salmon is cooked through and rests easily.
