Ingredients

• 4 pieces (approx. 6 oz each) salmon fillet
• 3 tablespoons white miso paste
• 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon, grated fresh ginger
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 stalks, finely chopped green onions
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Pat them dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and black pepper.

Step 4

Using a spoon or basting brush, evenly spread the miso marinade over the top of each salmon fillet.

Step 5

Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 6

Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.

Step 7

Garnish the baked salmon fillets with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Step 8

Serve immediately with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad to complete the meal.
