- Reduce the heat to medium, and add a little extra oil to the pan, if needed. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the soy sauce, sugar and fish sauce. Return the salmon to the pan and continue cooking until the sauce is rich, dark and syrupy, about 1 minute. Season the dish liberally with black pepper, and stir in the lime juice. Serve the salmon alongside some steamed rice, and drizzle the dish with the sauce, and garnish with lime wedges.

WHISKEY-GLAZED SALMON WITH SALT-CRUSTED POTATOES
The savory snap of baby potatoes crusted in salt is just what you want with the subtle sweetness of this fish's glaze. The fish and the potatoes cook and come together at the same time in this fast meal. To achieve silky salmon without turning on the oven, gently cook it in a shallow pool of sauce that thickens to a syrup as it simmers. The potatoes, prepared using a technique from the Canary Islands, simply boil in generously salted water, then finish cooking with a splash of the liquid. When it evaporates, the salt that remains crusts onto the spuds. Shaking the pan vigorously helps the salt coat the potatoes evenly and sheds excess crystals. Serve with a salad or, after the glaze is scraped onto the fish, throw baby spinach into the still-hot skillet and stir to just wilt.

Steps:
- Make the potatoes: The potatoes should all be the same small size, about 1 inch in diameter, so cut any larger ones in halves or quarters. Place in a large saucepan with 4 cups water and add the salt. Bring to boil over high heat, then continue boiling until a paring knife slides through a potato easily, about 15 minutes.
- About 5 minutes before the potatoes are tender, start the salmon: Combine the sugar, whiskey and Worcestershire sauce in a large skillet, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, then add to the skillet skin side down (or the flat side if the fillets are skinless). Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the salmon becomes opaque about halfway up the sides, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, carefully tip the saucepan into the sink to pour out all but about 1/4 cup cooking water, keeping the potatoes in the pan. Return the saucepan to the stove with the potatoes and a thin layer of cooking water at the bottom, and set over high heat. Cook, shaking the pan often, until the liquid evaporates and the potatoes are crusted in a fine film of salt, about 5 minutes. The pan should be extremely dry and coated in salt and the potatoes will sound crackly when shaken.
- Flip the salmon and continue cooking until just opaque from top to bottom and a paring knife slides through with almost no resistance, about 5 minutes longer. If you started with a 1-inch-thick fillet, this will be medium-rare. The timing will vary depending on the thickness of your fish and your preferred doneness. If you'd like, use tongs to peel off and discard the skin if there is any. The glaze should have thickened and be syrupy.
- Divide the potatoes and salmon among serving plates and drizzle any glaze from the pan over the fish.

Tips:
- Use wild-caught salmon for the best flavor and texture.
- If you're using frozen salmon, thaw it completely before cooking.
- Pat the salmon dry with paper towels before cooking to help the glaze stick.
- Use a high-quality olive oil for the best flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the salmon. If you're cooking multiple pieces, cook them in batches.
- Cook the salmon until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare or 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
- To make the glaze, use a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-low heat. Don't let the glaze boil, or it will seize and become unusable.
- Once the glaze has thickened, remove it from the heat and stir in the butter. This will help to create a smooth and glossy glaze.
- Brush the glaze on the salmon before serving. You can also spoon the glaze over the salmon or serve it on the side.
