I had some salmon that I wanted to marinate and this is what I came up with. No real measurements. I just dumped stuff in a bowl until it looked and tasted right.

freshly ground ginger
4 garlic cloves, finely minced
olive oil
rice wine vinegar
soy sauce
orange juice
salt
pepper

Even the SO was impressed. He was afraid he wouldn't like it and wanted me to not marinate a piece, but I told him to be adventurous and dumped all the fish in the bowl!

I would've used some sesame oil if I had any. I bet that would be good.

How thick was the Salmon? How long did you let it marinate?

Sorry, I've been busy and hadn't checked back. The fish was probably 3/4" at the thickest and I probably only marinated it for 15-20 minutes.

Thanks. I tend to let things soak up the goodness too long.

It's funny, whenever I hear somebody talk about amazing marinades, it almost invariably features ginger, garlic, soy sauce, and citrus. The first time I had this combo was on a steak back in the 90's. It was one of the last times I ever ate red meat, and yet one of the best.
