This baked teriyaki salmon recipe is the best with only 4 ingredients! It’s so simple and you can have dinner in less than 30 minutes without any marinating, but still flakey, flavorful and moist.
Line foil in bottom and sides of baking dish. Add 2 tablespoon soy sauce, 3 tablespoon teriyaki sauce, and 1 tablespoon rice wine. Place 4 salmon filets in the baking dish and flip over so that both sides are well coated. Fish fillets should not touch. Sprinkle pepper to taste.
Approximate cooking time is 15-20 minutes, but will depend on thickness of the fish. When fish is flaky and the center is a uniform color, the fish is perfect!
Notes
I always use Atlantic Salmon fillets, but wild caught salmon works well too. I do find the higher fat content of the farm raised salmon helps take in the marinade well. If using wild caught, consider marinating for 10 or 20 minutes before baking.
