This is a flavor packed but easy "go-to" marinade for salmon.

Remember when buying any seafood, the best is usually wild caught and ask them if it has been frozen. Fresh and wild is the best scenario but of course, farm raised is often cheaper so you can definitely still get that. Frozen filets work too. Whatever you have.
So make your marinade and coat the filet in the marinade.
Then cook according to your prerogative in the oven or on the grill.
I grilled and then baked to finish and it amazing!! Serve with fresh green beans or asparagus and wild rice or red potatoes.
A perfect fast and healthy dinner!
