This is about to become your go-to salmon recipe. Ginger Soy Salmon is easy to make as a freezer meal, yet tastes like it came from a fancy restaurant. If you’ve been nervous to try cooking salmon at home, this recipe will put your fears at ease.marinated salmon in freezer bag on top and white plate with cooked salmon, green beans, and salad on bottom with text that reads "Ginger Soy Salmon freezer meal"

When we would go out to eat, I would often order salmon because I didn’t feel that I could make it at home. It’s actually this recipe that convinced me otherwise. It tastes better than any salmon I’ve ever ordered in a restaurant.

This recipe is company worthy and no one will believe it was a freezer meal. Seafood freezer meals such as our Simple Dill Salmon, Seafood Curry, Red Curry Shrimp, Fish Tacos, and Maple Dill Salmon.

I often serve this salmon for Easter dinner. It goes perfectly for a holiday meal and has the added bonus of creating less work on that day because all you need to do is pull it out of the freezer to thaw and cook it.

The salmon marinates in the sauce as it thaws, deepening the flavours.

Ginger Soy Salmon Recipe:

  • 1 1/2 lbs. salmon fillets
  • 2/3 cup orange juice
  • 1 Tbsp. cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 Tbsp. lemon pepper seasoning
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp. minced ginger or ground ginger

Assembly instructions:

  1. Place the salmon fillets in a large resealable bag.
  2. Mix the orange juice and cornstarch together in a bowl.
  3. Add the other ingredients and mix.
  4. Pour over the salmon. Remove excess air and seal the bag. Freeze.

BBQ cooking instructions:

  1. Thaw.
  2. Preheat BBQ to medium.
  3. Create a tin foil packet for the salmon, place it inside and seal.
  4. BBQ 10-15 minutes or until it flakes fairly easily.

Oven cooking instructions:

  1. Thaw.
  2. Place on a baking sheet lined with tin foil and bake at 400° for about 20 minutes. Exact cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the salmon thickness. It will flake easily when done.

This salmon goes beautifully with Mango Avocado Salsa. Here are some ideas for side dishes that go well with salmon:

  • wild rice
