Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets (skin-on, about 180g each)
- 2 tbsp white miso paste
- 1 tbsp mirin
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp honey or maple syrup
- Sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Mix miso, mirin, soy sauce, sesame oil, and honey into a smooth paste.
- Pat salmon dry. Coat the top and sides with the miso glaze.
- Place salmon skin-side down on a lined baking sheet. Broil on high for 10-12 minutes until the glaze caramelizes and fish flakes easily.
- Top with sesame seeds and green onions.
- Serve with rice and steamed vegetables.
Notes
Watch it under the broiler — miso glaze goes from caramelized to burnt quickly. Stay close for the last 2 minutes.
