Step 1

Pat the salmon dry and place in a ziptop bag.

Step 2

In a measuring cup with a spout or mixing bowl, whisk together the oil, soy sauce, honey, Dijon, garlic powder, and black pepper.

Step 3

Pour over the top of the fish.

Step 4

Seal the bag, removing as much excess air as you can, then set in a dish or on a plate to catch any possible drips. Let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes or refrigerate for up to 1 hour (after 1 hour, fish tends to get mushy when marinated but if you MUST, you can refrigerate for up to 4 hours).

Step 5

Cook the salmon, using your preferred method. OVEN: Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper and place the salmon in the center (if using fillets, make sure they do not touch). Bake at 400°F for 11 to 14 minutes for 6-ounce fillets or 15 to 18 minutes for a single side, until the salmon registers 135°F on an instant read thermometer inserted at the thickest part of the salmon (the FDA recommends 145°F; I prefer to remove the salmon and let it rest so that it doesn’t taste dry). Remove from the oven and let rest 5 minutes.

Step 6

GRILL: Place the salmon skin-side down on a HOT grill. Let cook without disturbing until the salmon releases easily with a spatula, about 6 to 7 minutes. Flip and cook on the flesh side, about 2 to 4 minutes more depending upon your grill temperature. Remove to a plate and let rest 5 minutes.
