- 1.5 lb sockeye salmon fillet
- 1/2 cup avocado oil mayonnaise
- 2 tsp lemon zest or lime zest
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 2 tsp dried basil optional
- 1/2 tsp sea salt to taste
Simply preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and spay a casserole dish with cooking oil (or line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper).
Stir together the ingredients for the sauce in a bowl, then spread it over the sockeye salmon fillet (note: I usually cook mine as one large fillet, but you can cut it into smaller fillets first if you prefer).
Bake salmon for 30 minutes, or until it is cooked through. Serve with your favorite side dishes, and enjoy!
