Cá Hồi Hấp Xì Dầu is a delightful Vietnamese steamed salmon dish infused with the rich flavors of soy sauce, ginger, and scallions. This healthy preparation method preserves the fish's natural moisture and tenderness while delivering a savory taste.

Ingredients

• Salmon fillet - 300 grams
• Soy sauce - 3 tablespoons
• Ginger - 1 tablespoon, finely grated

• Scallions - 2, chopped
• Lemon - 1, juice and zest

Steps

1. Prepare the marinade by mixing soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, lemon juice, black pepper, and sesame oil in a bowl.
2. Place the salmon fillet in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it, ensuring the fish is well coated. Let it marinate for 10 minutes.
