Scale
Marinade:
- Juice of 1 orange
- Juice of 2 lemons
- Juice of 2 limes
- 1/2 cup finely chopped baby Arugula leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1-inch grated or finely chopped ginger
Salmon
- ±750g salmon cut into 3 fillets
Instructions
- Mix together all the marinade ingredients and pour them into a large Ziploc bag.
- Add the salmon fillets and marinate for ±45-60 minutes.
- Do not marinate it for more than an hour, as the citrus will start to cook the salmon.
- Remove salmon and ever so lightly pat dry with a paper towel, but do not remove the other ingredients from the salmon.
- Season with salt.
- Bake in the oven at 350F / 180C for 10-15 minutes, depending on how you like it cooked.
- Be careful not to overdo it as salmon can dry out very quickly if not careful.
- Another option would be to grill it over medium-high heat, turning it over and grilling both sides, or you can even BBQ it if you prefer.
- Sprinkle with pepper as per your preference.
- Serve with extra citrus juice and a side salad of Arugula leaves and baby tomato.
