Note

The original recipe suggested marinating for 45 minutes, but for a quicker meal, you can bake directly. If you prefer a deeper flavor, let the salmon sit in the sauce for 15-20 minutes before baking.

Serve with boiled potatoes, steamed rice, or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.

Keep an eye on the garlic while sautéing, as it can go from golden to burnt quickly. Burnt garlic will be bitter.
