Place salmon fillets in a gallon size ziplock bag or an airtight container.
Whisk together all remaining ingredients; pour over salmon; seal; turn to coat salmon. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, to make cleanup easier and allow the sauce to be easily poured over the fish while serving it.
Place salmon on the parchment paper; pour extra marinade over the fillets.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, checking at 8-10 minutes for doneness. If not done, place it back in the oven for 1-2 minutes.
Serve over rice; drizzle with the pan juices; garnish with reserved sliced green onions.
6 servings.
*It's very important to remember is that the fish will continue to cook for a few minutes after it's off the heat, so remove it just before it is done to your liking. Salmon is best warm and flaking, but still a bit translucent even after resting.
