Perfect for dinner on a busy day! Baked Garlic Salmon

Sake no ninniku oil yaki （鮭のにんにくオイル焼き）

sake = salmon ninniku = garlic yaki = bake

Marinate the salmon in olive oil and garlic and bake in the oven.The juicy baked salmon and the aroma of garlic are wonderful.

Just put all the ingredients in a plastic bag in the morning, bake in the evening, and you have a wonderful dinner.

I use coho salmon. This is a type of salmon that is very popular in Japan.

Since it has a skin on it, I use a wire mesh oven tray.This is to prevent the salmon skin from becoming sticky.

Salmon skin contains a lot of collagen, so I eat it with the skin.

Salmon also contains astaxanthin, a component with antioxidant properties.

It is an ingredient that is attracting attention because it is said to be effective in recovering from fatigue and beautifying the skin.

The astaxanthin found in salmon is more effective when taken together with lycopene from tomatoes and vitamin C from potatoes.

Mashed potatoes go well with salmon.Garnished with tomatoes and thinly sliced cucumber.

Additionally, astaxanthin is soluble in oil.Serve with the marinated oil as well.

Baked garlic salmon COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

➀ Slice the garlic.

② Wipe the moisture from the surface of the salmon with a paper towel.

③ Place garlic, olive oil, dried chili pepper (sliced), salmon, salt, and soy sauce in a plastic bag and mix gently.

④ Wait for several hours or overnight.

⑤ Bake for 20 minutes, skin side down, in the middle rack of an oven preheated to 250 degrees.

If you are using fish with skin, it will be better to use a wire mesh oven tray to make it crispier.

⑥ If the garlic looks like it’s going to burn, take it out first.

I’m Naoko. After graduating from a registered dietitian training school, I am working as a registered dietitian at a hospital in Japan. I love to cook and eat delicious food. I make recipes with calorie counting. The reason why all the ingredients are written as “g” is to accurately calculate calories. I am especially good at cooking with pressure cookers and ovens. I would like to introduce the recipe to foreigners who are interested in Japanese food. So I started writing Japanese home cooking recipes on my blog in English. 大学卒業後、管理栄養士として病院で勤務しています。レシピはカロリー計算を出来るだけ正確に行いたいので“g”で表記しています。日本の家庭料理のレシピを英語で紹介しています。圧力鍋とオーブンを使う料理が得意です。日本食・和食に興味を持ってもらえたら嬉しいです。よろしくお願いします(*ˊᵕˋ)♡‧₊
