📝 Ingredients
- 4 (5 or 6 ounce) salmon fillets
- 1 bunch green onions
- 1 medium or large jalapeño
- 1 cup low-sodium soy sauce
👨🍳 Instructions
- Place 4 salmon fillets in a broiler-safe 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Slice green onions; transfer to a bowl. Cut jalapeños lengthwise, remove seeds, and dice; combine with jalapeños. Place green onion mixture on top of fillets until salmon tops are filled and mixture is falling off.
- Pour soy sauce directly over fillets; marinate at room temperature for no more than 30 minutes. A thin layer of soy sauce should pool in the bottom of the baking dish.
- Set an oven rack in the middle position and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Place the dish in the preheated broiler; broil until green onions and jalapeños are crispy and brown and the salmon breaks apart easily, 10 to 12 minutes.
