Ginger Roasted Salmon Recipes

GINGER SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a small bowl, blend olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard and ginger
• Brush salmon fillets evenly with the olive oil mixture. Place in a medium baking dish. Bake 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

GINGER-SOY BAKED SALMON

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in garlic. Cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large glass or ceramic bowl.
• Add soy sauce, rice wine, rice vinegar, ginger, and wasabi paste to the garlic-sesame oil mixture; whisk to combine. Add salmon fillets and turn to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Remove fillets from the marinade, shake off excess, and place on the prepared baking sheet. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes.

GINGER-GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Combine the olive oil, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, maple syrup, Chinese mustard, sriracha and garlic in a large bowl. Pour one-third into a small bowl and reserve. Add the salmon fillets to the large bowl. Marinate, covered, in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil to coat the skillet. Add the salmon skin-side down and cook until crispy, about 5 minutes. Baste the flesh side with the reserved marinade. Flip and cook until the salmon is cooked through and the flesh side is golden brown, an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Top with the scallions.

ROASTED SALMON WITH GINGER-LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Lay the salmon on a rimmed baking sheet, and season with salt and pepper. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Make the ginger-lime butter: In a small bowl, combine softened butter, ginger, lime zest, lemon zest and lime juice. Add salt and pepper to taste, and stir well to combine.
• Transfer salmon, uncovered, to the oven to cook for about 8 minutes. Check the salmon once or twice as it cooks. Depending on the thickness of the fish, it should be fully cooked when little white juices appear on the surface - moist and yielding with big flakes when probed. It may take 10 minutes for thick fillets.
• As the salmon cooks, put 2 tablespoons ginger-lime butter in a wide deep skillet or large pot over medium heat. When butter is melted, add spinach and a pinch of salt. Put on the lid and turn heat to medium-high. (You may need to add the spinach in batches.) After 2 minutes, remove lid and stir spinach to help it wilt. When all spinach is wilted, turn off the heat.
• Transfer salmon to a platter or divide among individual plates. Smear the remaining ginger-lime butter on the fish. Surround with wilted spinach and lime wedges, and top with scallions.

ROASTED SALMON WITH ORANGE-GINGER GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place orange juice in a small saucepan over medium low heat. Cook and stir 10 to 15 minutes, until reduced by about 1/2 and thickened. Remove from heat, and allow to cool.
• Stir balsamic vinegar and ginger root into orange juice.
• Line a medium baking dish with parchment paper. Place salmon fillet on paper, skin side down. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with 1/2 the orange juice mixture.
• Bake salmon in the preheated oven 10 to 15 minutes. Brush with remaining marinade, and continue baking 10 to 15 minutes, until easily flaked with a fork.

BAKED SALMON AND GINGER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Put two fillets of fresh, boneless salmon on a piece of foil and sprinkle evenly with the chopped ginger and garlic.
• Squeeze the lemon juice over both pieces of fish then sprinkle with chopped cilantro. Wrap loosely in the foil and bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
• Serve with green salad leaves, dressed with a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
