The Mango Ginger Salmon recipe combines the sweet and tangy flavors of ripe mangoes with the zesty punch of ginger, perfectly complementing the richness of salmon. This dish is both nutritious and delightful, making it an excellent choice for a healthy, gourmet meal at home.
Instructions:
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, soy sauce, and minced ginger root.
- Stir the mixture thoroughly until all components are well-blended.
- Place the salmon fillets in a large sealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
- Pour the mango ginger marinade over the salmon, ensuring each fillet is well-coated.
- Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Allow the salmon to marinate for at least 30 minutes, but ideally for 2-4 hours to enhance the flavors.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
- Remove the salmon fillets from the marinade, letting any excess drip off.
- Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Once baked, remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
- You can serve the salmon with a side of steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
- For an added touch, garnish with fresh cilantro, lime wedges, or additional diced mango.
Tips:
- 1. For a spicier kick, add a small amount of chili flakes to the marinade.
- 2. Ensure the salmon fillets are of even thickness to promote even cooking.
- 3. You can also grill the salmon if you prefer; just watch closely to prevent burning.
- 4. Consider serving with a fresh mango salsa on the side for added fruitiness.
