Great tasting salmon fillets from Dr. Andrew Weil's book"Eight Weeks to Optimum Health." Great tasting salmon fillets from Dr. Andrew Weil's book"Eight Weeks to Optimum Health."
Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

    Marinade:
    1 cup sake
    1/2 cup natural soy sauce or tamari
    1 tablespoon grated fresh gingerroot
    2 cloves fresh garlic, peeled and mashed
    1 tablespoon dark brown sugar

    Salmon fillets (allow 4 oz. per person)
    Lemon wedges (optional)

Tips

1-3 hours is minimum marinating time. I have actually left this in the refrigerator overnight and it is even better!


Directions

1) Prepare marinade by mixing the sake (Japanese rice wine), the reduced sodium soy sauce or tamari, grated ginger, mashed garlic and dark brown sugar.

2) Rinse the salmon fillets under cold water, place in sealable container and pour marinade over fillets. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 1-3 hours, turning container once or twice to achieve even marinating.

3) Prepare grill or preheat broiler to high heat.

4) Drain fish and place on foil on grill or oven rack. Cook until desired doneness, but do not overcook. Serve at once, with lemon wedges if desired.

Serving Size: Four 4-ounce servings
