Ingredients

1 lb Salmon Fillet boneless, skin on or off
2 tablespoon Kewpie Mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
2 tablespoon Furikake Seasoning
¼ teaspoon Black Pepper
½ teaspoon Onion Powder
¼ teaspoon Garlic Powder

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400º and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine kewpie mayo and lemon juice and whisk together well. In a separate bowl, combine furikake seasoning, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder and stir together.
Cut salmon fillet across the grain into four equal servings (or leave as a whole fillet) and arrange skin side down on the baking tray. Pat dry with a paper towel.
Evenly spread the lemon mayo mixture over the top of each fillet, then sprinkle the furikake mixture generously over the mayo layer.
Bake in center of oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 8-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches between 125-135 depending on your preference. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

Baking time is based on 1" thick slices of salmon fillets. If you have thin pink salmon fillets, check for doneness after 8 minutes and for thicker king salmon fillets, you may need to bake them for up to 14 minutes. Slices will bake faster than whole fillets.
