Roasted Salmon Fillet Recipe
A Favorite Restaurant Salmon Recipe
This Roasted Salmon Fillet Recipe is a very popular restaurant salmon recipe.
I love the flavors created by using
wild Alaskan King or Sockeye salmon
and golden brown sugar with some unsalted butter and a few spices and other ingredients including soy sauce. And because of the soy sauce, this restaurant salmon recipe is called an Asian Roasted Salmon Fillet.
The picture shows how the salmon should look when it is ready to be garnished. I like using chopped green onion for that, or a couple of whole green onions that have been "feathered" at the ends.
The plate shows wilted spinach served with the roasted salmon, along with simple boiled potatoes, a favorite of my husband. The plate also needs to be garnished to be ready for serving.
