Lemongrass Baked Salmon

When it comes to salmon, I like it pretty simple.  Either Cedar Plank Salmon or just some lemon & dill.  My husband on the other hand likes some FLAVOR.  So that’s where this recipe comes from & I have to say.  It was a huge hit at our house.

Recently, I’ve really come to enjoy using lemongrass so you might see more of it soon!!

Oh & this recipe takes a little time to cook BUT it’s in the oven so it’s all good.  Just set it & forget it.  The prep is maybe 5 minutes.

2 Tablespoons Coconut Nectars

1/4 Cup Apple Cider Vinegar (with-the-mother)

1 Stalk Lemongrass

2 Cloves Garlic

1/4 Small to Medium Onion

1 Medjool Date, pitted

1 lb Wild-caught Salmon

Cilantro for serving

1.  Combine all the ingredients except the salmon in a blender or food processor.  I used a hand blender for this.
2. Place the salmon skin-side down in a baking dish & cover with the sauce.  I left a little to the side to use as a topping once the salmon was cooked.  Marinate the salmon for about 20 minutes.
3. Preheat the oven to 275º F.
4. Bake until the salmon flakes easily with a fork & has an opaque center.  This should take about 25-35 minutes.
5. Serve with the cilantro on top.
6. Enjoy!
