Teriyaki Salmon, Shrimp, and Vegetables Bake



I've been looking at the frozen salmon filets in my freezer for a while and trying to decide what to do with them. I also have been on an (unsuccessful) quest to find "soyaki" sauce. It may only be at Trader Joes. Anyway, I picked up some Soy Vey "Very Very Teriyaki" and decided to test it out.

And yes, with vegetables.

Ingredients:
  • However many filets of salmon you want (defrosted)
  • However many shrimp you want (defrosted, deveined/tail-off)
  • However many and whatever kind of vegetables you want (I chose broccoli, halved cherry tomatoes, diced onions, yellow squash, and zucchini)
  • Enough teriyaki sauce to coat it all
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven (I did to 400)
  2. Dice up your vegetables as you see fit
  3. Poke holes in salmon with fork
  4. Marinade salmon and vegetables in teriyaki sauce for about 10 minutes or more (I poured all of the above into a ziplock bag, turned around a few times to coat, and then let sit)
  5. Pour mixture into a baking pan
  6. Cover baking pan (I used tin foil...you may or may not)
  7. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, checking and basting occasionally as you see fit
Voila! You have a beautiful meal (and pretty fantastic, too).
