Ingredients

Salmon
1 1/2 lbs / 680 gr (or four 6-oz pieces) salmon, skin on or off
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons coconut palm sugar (or brown sugar if you don't care about the paleo thing)
2 tablespoons wheat-free soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
Ginger Honey Glaze
4 tablespoons honey (pick one with a mild taste)
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 teaspoon wheat-free soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

In a bowl combine olive oil, sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, vinegar, and brown sugar. Whisk well until combined. In a shallow sealable container or in a large Ziploc bag, combine salmon and marinade. Cover or seal and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. In the meantime in a small bowl combine all glaze ingredients. Set aside. Preheat the broiler in your oven to high and place a rack in the middle. Line a baking sheet with aluminium foil and lightly grease with olive oil. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place onto the lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper and place under the broiler. Cook for 10 minutes. Remove and brush the top with glaze. Cook for further 2 minutes or until opaque and easily flakable with a fork. Remove immediately, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and chopped scallions if desired, and serve.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 (1 pound) skin-on salmon fillet
½ cup light soy sauce
3 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons honey
½ teaspoon sesame seeds
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a heat-resistant baking dish (such as Pyrex®) with aluminum foil and place salmon, skin-side down, in the dish.
Mix soy sauce, ginger, honey, sesame seeds, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl until honey is dissolved. Pour over salmon fillet, making sure top of salmon is completely covered.
Cook under the preheated broiler until top of salmon has begun to turn golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and baste the top of the fillet with glaze. Turn the broiler off and preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Return to the preheated oven and bake until fish has a rich, dark brown glaze and flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes. Remove skin and serve.

Tips:

Choose the freshest salmon possible. Fresh salmon will have a bright pink color and a mild, slightly fishy smell. Avoid salmon that is dull in color or has a strong, fishy odor.
Use a good quality soy sauce. Not all soy sauces are created equal. Look for a soy sauce that is made with whole soybeans and has a deep, rich flavor.
Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque throughout, about 5-7 minutes per side.
Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving so that the juices can redistribute.

Conclusion:

Salmon soy ginger glaze is a delicious and easy-to-prepare dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is cooked in a flavorful glaze made with soy sauce, ginger, and garlic. The glaze gives the salmon a slightly sweet and savory flavor that is sure to please everyone at the table. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
