instructions
    1

    Begin by preheating your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).

    2

    While the oven is heating, prepare the marinade by grating 1 piece of ginger and mincing 2 cloves of garlic.

    3

    In a small bowl, combine the grated ginger, minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of turmeric, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Mix well.

    4

    Place the 2 pieces of salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spoon the marinade over the salmon, ensuring it is well coated.

    5

    Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork.

    6

    While the salmon is baking, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

    7

    Once the oil is hot, add 4 cups of spinach to the skillet. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted.

    8

    Slice the lime in half. Squeeze the juice of one half over the sautéed spinach and stir to combine.

    9

    Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes.

    10

    To plate, add a generous portion of sautéed spinach to a bowl, top with salmon, and drizzle additional marinade if desired. Garnish with lime wedges.

Important Tips
  • Ensure that the salmon is not overcooked; keep an eye on it during the last few minutes of baking.
