In separate bowls, whisk together marinades. Pour into individual ziploc bags. Place 1 large piece of salmon (about 4-6oz salmon) with each marinade. Carefully try to squeeze out air from the bag.
In the Oven:
Allow the salmon a minimum of 30 minutes to marinate (overnight is best for maximum flavor).
Preheat oven to 400 + prepare a lined baking sheet. Lay salmon pieces on the sheet side by side. Bake for 15-20 minutes until salmon flakes easily.
Eat immediately, or allow salmon to cool for 5 minutes + store in containers with veggies/side for meal prepping
On the grill:
Preheat grill to 375. Lay salmon in baking dish and pour marinade over it. Allow salmon to marinate for at least 30 minutes. (overnight is best)
Lay salmon on grilling mat or wrap in a piece of aluminum foil. Cook for 15 minutes. Do not flip! You can test to see if the salmon is done by seeing if it flakes with a fork.
Eat immediately, or allow salmon to cool for 5 minutes + store in containers with veggies/side for meal prepping
If freezing:
Transfer the individual bags to the freezer.
Lay flat in freezer. To defrost, remove from freezer 24 hours in advance + place in refrigerator.
