Salmon teriyaki is a delicious and relatively simple dish to make. Here's a recipe for you:

Ingredients:

  • 2 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)
  • 1 tablespoon sake (Japanese rice wine) or dry white wine
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Toasted sesame seeds (for garnish)
  • Sliced green onions (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the sauce:
    • In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, mirin, sake (or white wine), brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar is dissolved. Simmer for about 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.
  2. Prepare the salmon:
    • Pat dry the salmon fillets with paper towels. This helps the salmon to sear nicely.
    • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Cook the salmon:
    • Place the salmon fillets in the skillet, skin side down if they have skin. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is nicely seared and golden brown.
  4. Add the sauce:
    • Carefully flip the salmon fillets. Pour the teriyaki sauce over the salmon. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, spooning the sauce over the fillets occasionally, until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Serve:
    • Transfer the salmon fillets to serving plates. Spoon some of the teriyaki sauce over each fillet.
    • Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
  6. Enjoy:
    • Serve your salmon teriyaki hot, ideally with steamed rice and your favorite vegetables.

Notes:

  • Adjust the cooking time depending on the thickness of your salmon fillets. Thicker fillets may need a bit longer to cook through.
  • You can also marinate the salmon in some of the teriyaki sauce before cooking for extra flavor.
  • Feel free to customize with additional vegetables like steamed broccoli or bok choy on the side.

This recipe should give you flavorful and tender salmon with a delicious teriyaki glaze. Enjoy!
