8. Rice:
To serve with the salmon, you can make some steamed rice or fried rice as a side dish. It will soak up all the delicious sauce and complete the meal.
Instructions:
1. Marinate the salmon:
In a bowl, mix together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, Chinese five-spice powder, and chopped green onions to make the marinade. Place the salmon fillets in a zip-lock bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Remove the salmon fillets from the marinade and place them on a baking dish lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.
3. Make the sauce:
While the salmon is cooking, pour the remaining marinade into a small saucepan. Cook on medium heat until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
4. Serve:
