Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat Oven: Begin by setting your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a parchment-lined baking sheet to make cleanup easy and ensure even cooking.
  2. Prepare Salmon: Place your salmon fillets skin-side down on the lined baking sheet. Lightly season them with salt and pepper to enhance their natural flavor.
  3. Make Salsa: In a bowl, combine sweet corn kernels, grated ginger, cilantro, and lime juice. Mix until all ingredients are thoroughly combined, creating a refreshing salsa.
  4. Assemble: Generously spread the ginger corn salsa over each salmon fillet. Make sure to cover them well for maximum flavor distribution.
  5. Bake: Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork, indicating deliciousness!
  6. Serve: Carefully plate the salmon while still warm, topping it with any remaining salsa. Garnish with lime wedges or extra cilantro for an appealing finish.
