Notes

Preparation Secret: I always spend an extra minute patting the salmon cubes completely dry with paper towels because any lingering moisture will steam the fish rather than giving me that golden, crispy exterior I crave.
Flavor Balance: If you cannot find Meyer lemons at your local market, I find that using regular lemon juice with a tiny pinch of sugar perfectly mimics that unique, floral sweetness I love in this marinade.
