Lemon Ginger Salmon - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 salmon fillets
2 green onions

1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil

Preparation

Chop green onions. Reserve green tops for garnish.
In a bowl, combine white part of onions, ginger root, garlic, soy sauce, lemon juice, lemon zest, sugar and sesame oil.
Place salmon fillets in a single layer in a shallow baking dish. Pour marinade over; let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes or in the fridge for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 425\u00b0F.
Bake, uncovered, for 13-15 minutes or until salmon turns opaque.
Garnish with reserved green onions. Sesame seeds also make a nice garnish.
Salmon could be grilled or microwaved instead of baking in the oven.
