Ingredients
  • For the salmon:
  • 1 lb wild salmon filet, bones removed
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  •  
  • For the salsa:
  • 1 white nectarine, finely diced
  • ½ cup peeled, seeded and finely diced cucumber
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped cilantro
  • 2 tbsp finely sliced green onion
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp lime juice
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • ½ tsp lime zest
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Arrange an oven rack in the center of the oven.
  2. Pat salmon dry and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet skin side down. Rub olive oil, sea salt, and ginger evenly on filet.
  3. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the flesh is flaky and the center remains a medium-dark pink. This prevents the salmon from becoming too dry. While the fish bakes, prepare the salsa.
  4. In a medium bowl, mix all salsa ingredients.
  5. Let rest for several minutes or place in refrigerator for up to 12 hours until ready to serve.
  6. Spoon over warm salmon.
