INGREDIENTS:
4 wild salmon fillets
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- Season fillets with salt and pepper, onion powder, and red pepper flakes. Set aside in a baking dish.
Season Your Filets Before Marinating
- In a medium bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, balsamic vinegar, sugar, green onions, and cilantro. Pour marinade over salmon; cover, and refrigerate overnight, or at least 6 hours.
- If using an oven, preheat it to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
Grilling is Definitely Recommended
- Arrange salmon on a broiling sheet. Place in a preheated oven, and bake for 5 minutes. Increase heat to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C), turn fillets, and broil 5 minutes more. For grilling, 7 to 8 minutes per side is typically sufficient without overcooking.
