Teriyaki Salmon Soy Glaze (Printable Version)

Salmon fillets baked in sweet-savory teriyaki glaze, garnished with sesame seeds and green onion.

# Ingredients:

→ Main Components

01 - 450 g salmon, cut into 4 equal portions

→ Marinade

02 - 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
03 - 2 tablespoons soy sauce
04 - 2 tablespoons brown sugar
05 - 2 teaspoons minced garlic
06 - 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
07 - 1 tablespoon olive oil

→ Garnish

08 - 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
09 - 2 green onions, sliced

# Steps:

01 - Divide the salmon fillet into 4 equal pieces and set aside.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk together teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, rice vinegar, and olive oil until homogeneous.
03 - Place salmon portions into the marinade, ensuring full coverage. Cover and refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes.
04 - Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
05 - Arrange salmon pieces on the prepared baking sheet, spaced apart. Reserve remaining marinade. Bake for 12 to 16 minutes, or until salmon is light pink and flakes easily.
06 - While baking, pour reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to low and simmer, stirring often, until thickened and glossy, about 4 to 5 minutes.
07 - Remove salmon from oven. Spoon thickened sauce evenly over each piece.
08 - For a caramelised finish, broil the glazed salmon for 1 to 2 minutes until the sauce bubbles and darkens slightly.
09 - Sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onion over salmon just before serving.

# Notes:

01 - For optimal flavour absorption, marinating the salmon for at least 20 minutes is recommended, but you can extend up to one hour if time allows.
