Ingredients
Ingredients
- 4 fillets salmon about 6 oz each, skin-on
- 2 tbsp white miso paste
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp sriracha
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger grated
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds for garnish
- 2 tbsp green onions thinly sliced, for garnish
Notes
Storage: Store leftover salmon in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a 300°F oven to maintain crispiness. Make-Ahead: The miso glaze can be prepared up to 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator. Substitutions: Use tamari instead of soy sauce for a gluten-free option. For less heat, reduce or omit the sriracha. Serving Suggestions: Serve over a bed of sesame-infused quinoa or with a side of quick-pickled cucumbers.
