Ingredients:
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.
