Marinated soy ginger salmon fillet

This Marinated Soy Ginger Salmon Fillet is a vibrant, flavor-packed dish that combines sweet, savory, and zesty notes in every bite. A whole sockeye fillet is rubbed with warm spices and brown sugar, then soaked in a homemade soy-ginger marinade infused with fresh citrus, garlic, and ginger for deep, aromatic flavor. After broiling to caramelized perfection, the salmon turns tender, flaky, and irresistibly glossy. It’s an easy yet impressive meal that feels restaurant-quality while remaining beautifully simple to prepare—perfect for weeknight dinners or a special seafood centerpiece.

MARINATED SOY GINGER SALMON FILLET

Ingredients

Instructions

Ingredients

  • 1 whole sockeye salmon fillet
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar, divided
  • 2 teaspoons lemon pepper, divided
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder, divided
  •  1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger root, minced
  • 1/3 cup orange juice

Instructions

  1. Rub salmon with about 1 tablespoon brown sugar. Lightly sprinkle with lemon pepper and garlic powder; rub seasoning into fish.
  2. Into a small saucepan set over medium heat, pour soy sauce and olive oil. Stir in ginger and remaining brown sugar, lemon pepper, and garlic powder. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat, stir in orange juice.
  3. Place fish and marinade into a resealable plastic bag, seal, and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 3 hours.
  4. Preheat broiler. Place fish in a foil-lined baking pan. Reserve marinade.
  5. Broil fish skin-side up, 2 minutes. Remove from oven, pull skin off with tongs. Baste with marinade, return to oven, and broil 2 minutes more. Turn fish, and broil until fish flakes easily, about 4 minutes. Remove from oven, and let sit 5 minutes before serving.
