dients:
Ingre
- 4 salmon fillets
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup mirin
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon grated ginger
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Sesame seeds, for garnish
- Sliced green onions, for garnish
- In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, mirin, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil to make the teriyaki sauce.
- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour half of the teriyaki sauce over them, reserving the remaining sauce for later. Marinate the salmon in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated salmon fillets to the skillet, skin-side down.
- Cook the salmon for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through, basting with the marinade occasionally.
- While the salmon is cooking, pour the reserved teriyaki sauce into a small saucepan. Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
- Once the salmon is cooked through, transfer it to a serving platter and drizzle with the thickened teriyaki sauce.
- Garnish the teriyaki glazed salmon with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
- Serve the Japanese-Inspired Teriyaki Glazed Salmon hot, and enjoy the succulent flavors of Japan in every bite!
