Teriyaki Salmon Recipe

Here’s a recipe for Teriyaki Salmon Recipe

Ingredients for Teriyaki Sauce:

• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup water
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

Ingredients for Teriyaki Salmon:

• 4 salmon fillets
• Teriyaki sauce (prepared from the previous recipe)
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• Optional toppings: sesame seeds, sliced green onions

Instructions for Teriyaki Sauce:

1. In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, water, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
2. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.
3. In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1-2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry (optional). This can be added to thicken the sauce if desired.
4. If using the cornstarch slurry, gradually pour it into the simmering sauce while stirring continuously. Continue to cook the sauce for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until it has thickened to your desired consistency.
5. Remove the sauce from the heat and set it aside. It will continue to thicken as it cools.

Instructions for Teriyaki Salmon:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a ziplock bag, and pour about 1/3 cup of the prepared Teriyaki sauce over the salmon to marinate. Reserve the remaining sauce for glazing.
3. Marinate the salmon for at least 15 minutes, or up to 1 hour in the refrigerator.
4. Heat the vegetable oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
5. Remove the salmon fillets from the marinade and gently shake off any excess sauce.
6. Place the salmon fillets in the hot skillet, skin-side down if they have skin. Sear for about 2 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden.
7. Flip the salmon fillets over and brush the tops generously with the reserved Teriyaki sauce.
8. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 8-10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
9. Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the oven and brush it with more Teriyaki sauce if desired.
10. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish.
11. Serve the Teriyaki salmon hot with steamed rice and your favorite vegetables.
