  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped green onions for garnish (optional)

Preparation
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a small bowl, combine teriyaki sauce, olive oil, garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper.
Cooking
  1. Place salmon fillets in a baking dish and pour the teriyaki mixture over them, ensuring each fillet is evenly coated.

Serving

Notes

For maximum flavor, ensure the salmon fillets are evenly coated with teriyaki sauce. Marinate the salmon for 30 minutes before baking for a deeper taste. Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of the salmon fillets.
