Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 oz each) salmon fillets
• 3 tablespoons white miso paste
• 2 tablespoons coconut aminos (or soy sauce)
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon minced ginger
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1 unit (juice and zest) lime
• 2 units (thinly sliced) green onions
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

In a small mixing bowl, combine the white miso paste, coconut aminos, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced ginger, minced garlic, lime juice, and zest. Mix until well combined and smooth, forming a marinade.

Step 3

Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Season each fillet lightly with salt and black pepper.

Step 4

Brush each fillet generously with the miso marinade, ensuring a thick coating on the top and sides.

Step 5

Allow the salmon to marinate for about 10 minutes at room temperature while the oven preheats.

Step 6

After marinating, drizzle the olive oil over the salmon fillets to help create a beautiful glaze as they cook.

Step 7

Place the baking sheet with marinated salmon in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 8

Remove the salmon from the oven and allow it to rest for a few minutes. Sprinkle the green onions and sesame seeds over the top of the salmon fillets.

Step 9

Serve hot with your favorite low-carb vegetables or salad.
