Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
3 pounds salmon fillet, center cut and skinned
2 tablespoons canola oil
⅓ cup freshly grated ginger
½ cup green onions, sliced on the bias plus ¼ cup for garnish
½ cup soy sauce or wheat-free tamari for gluten free
2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
2 TB sugar (I omit)
¼ teaspoon black pepper

Directions:
Directions:
1. Peel the ginger and cut into chunks. Grind in the bowl of a food processor until very finely chopped.
2. Slice and wash the green onions.
3. Saute the ginger in a little oil over medium heat for only a minute. We want to cook the ginger to take the edge off but we don't want to burn it.
4. Add the green onions and cook for a minute just to slightly wilt. Remove pan from heat.
5. Add remaining ingredients except for salmon, stir, and set aside.
6. Remove all pin bones from salmon. Skewer by sliding bamboo skewers through the width of the fillet. Put each skewer into fish about 1/2" apart.
7. Slice between the skewers. Spray a sheet pan lined with parchment paper with cooking spray. Lay skewers on their sides, all in the same direction, and pour glaze over the fish. I usually will pat the fish with the glaze to evenly spread the green onion and ginger. Marinate for about 5 minutes and turn piece over.
8. Bake in a 400º F oven and cook skewers about 4 - 5 minutes.

The fish is done when it feels firm. I cook it to 115 degree and remove from the oven and let sit a few minutes. The temperature will continue to rise for a few degrees. Don't cook it so long that all the fat starts oozing from the fish.
Remove to a serving platter and garnish with some of the sliced green onions.

Leah writes, "This is our famous ginger glaze recipe which we use on both skewers or fillets of salmon. It is quick and easy, both in the prep and cooking. It is a favorite with my clients and it isn't unusual to make hundreds at a time. We bake the fish in a hot oven and the skewers only take a few minutes. They are great served at room temperature with a buffet of salads. We also serve portions of fillets as an entree."
