Marinated Wild Salmon Recipes

SIX HEALTHY SALMON MARINADE RECIPES

Steps:

• Add all marinade ingredients to a small bowl and mix together.
• Add salmon to a glass container or plastic bag and pour marinade sauce overtop. Container should be small enough so that salmon can soak up the sauce. Seal the bag/container and let sit in fridge for 1-2 hours before cooking. Salmon can also marinade overnight in the fridge.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place salmon fillet skin side down on the baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until salmon is easily flaked with a fork. (If you have small salmon fillets, just cook for less time).
• Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat with cooking oil. Once the pan is hot, add the salmon so skin side is facing up. Cook for 2-3 minutes then flip over so skin side is down. Pour the leftover marinade sauce over top of the salmon and cook for another 3-5 minutes. I like to watch the clock during this time because I'm not a fan of overcooked salmon.
• At this point, depending on how thick the salmon is, the sides of the salmon should have just turned white and it should be cooked. To check you can use a fork to see if the salmon flakes easily. If it does, and the insides aren't translucent, then it's cooked. Remove from heat.
• Heat barbecue to medium heat, place salmon on the grill, skin side up. Cover and let cook for about 5 minutes, then flip. Pour extra marinade over top and cook an additional 5 minutes. Salmon will be done when easily flaked with a fork.
• Lightly coat the inside of the air fryer tray or basket with olive oil or cooking spray. Add the salmon fillets skin side up to the tray. Cook at 400°F for 10 minutes, then flip them over and pour leftover marinade on top. Cook an additional 10 minutes, or until fully cooked.

MARINATED WILD SALMON

Steps:

• Season fillets with salt and pepper, onion powder, and red pepper flakes. Set aside in a baking dish.
• 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.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• 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.

ZESTY MARINADE FOR GRILLED WILD SALMON FILLETS

Steps:

• Blend the vinegar, olive oil, honey, lime juice, lemon juice, orange zest, garlic, sugar, ginger, chili powder, chili flakes and salt in a large baking dish then pop in the salmon fillets. Spoon marinade over salmon for one hour. Turn the fish and marinate for a further hour.
• Cook for 4 or 5 minutes aside on a grill at medium heat. Dead easy!

BAKED MARINATED SALMON

Steps:

• Lay the salmon fillets in a baking dish and spread evenly with brown sugar. Sprinkle with garlic powder, soy sauce and lemon juice. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, refrigerate and allow to marinate for up to 8 hours. Preheat the oven to 350*. Bake, uncovered, for about 15 minutes. Baste occasionally with the juices that accumulate in the pan. This salmon is also excellent barbecued over medium coals.

THE BEST SALMON MARINADE

Steps:

• Mix oil, soy sauce, scallions, garlic, and ginger to make a marinade, pour over salmon and marinate for 1 hour in the refrigerator. (no longer than an hour or the salt in the soy will begin to cook the meat).
• Grill, bake or grill salmon for about 4 minutes per side (when salmon flakes when pierced with a fork).
• **** (for a smokier flavor, add a couple splashes of liquid smoke to marinade -or- soak cedar planks in water for a few hours and grill the salmon on the cedar on the bbq). FABULOUS FAMILY FAVORITE (KIDS TOO). ****.
