Directions
Gently heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, mustard, chopped green onion, and a bit of grated ginger—give it a good stir and set it aside for now. Place your salmon fillet in a baking dish, then spread the mustard mixture evenly over the top. Season with a little black pepper to taste. Pop the salmon into the oven and let it bake until it flakes easily with a fork, which usually takes about 20 to 30 minutes. Once it’s done, take it out and enjoy your simple, healthy meal!
Simple Serving Suggestions
Serve this with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad for a light, balanced meal. Roasted potatoes or quinoa also pair well and add a bit of extra texture and flavor.
How To Store For Later
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to avoid drying out the salmon. For best taste, consume within 24 hours.
