Ingredients

  • 4 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless salmon fillets

  • ½ cup vegan margarine (such as Smart Balance®), melted

  • 1 lemon, halved

  • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 2 tablespoons white sugar

  • ½ teaspoon minced garlic

  • ½ cup chopped fresh parsley

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Dip salmon fillets in melted margarine, covering both sides. Place in a baking dish. Squeeze lemons evenly over each fillet.

  3. Whisk balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, and garlic together in a bowl; spoon over salmon fillets. Sprinkle with parsley; drizzle any remaining butter over fillets.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven and cover with aluminum foil for 3 minutes before serving.
