Directions

Combine all the ingredients for the marinade in a bowl. Add the salmon. Let marinade for an hour so that the fish fillets take in the flavors fully. Place in a baking dish (greased with some olive oil or any other cooking oil). Bake in a pre-heated oven for 30-40 minutes. Take out and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Enjoy!!

Hey there! Looking at the recipe, it should preferably be 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), I believe. However, just get it cross-checked! Thanks
