Salmon is a wonderful ingredient for weeknight meals because it's delicious and fast. The versatile protein is loaded with omega-3 fats, and this easy marinade makes it the perfect thing to cook when you don't want to fuss in the kitchen. The recipe calls for soy sauce, but we'd suggest swapping that with lower-sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos — a milder, less salty alternative. Serve your salmon with broccoli and brown rice.
