Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • baking sheet with rimmed edges
  • brush

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup Soy Sauce
  • 3 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 Tablespoon Honey
  • 1-2 teaspoons Sesame Oil to taste
  • 2 Tablespoons Cooking Sherry or Mirin
  • 1/4 cup Water
  • 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 3-4 Portions Salmon approximately 3oz each
  • Green onions optional garnish

Instructions

  • Place soy sauce, brown sugar, ground ginger, garlic powder, honey, sesame oil and sherry in a small saucepan and whisk to combine.
  • Set over medium heat until sugar is completely melted and no longer grainy, about 4 minutes.
  • Whisk the cornstarch into the water and then add to the sauce mixture. Continue to cook for 4 minutes until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  • Place the salmon portions in a small bowl or casserole dish and cover with about 1/2 of the teriyaki sauce, reserving the remaining half for later.
  • Refrigerate salmon for 30 minutes to marinate.
  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set the marinated salmon on the baking sheet. Brush with additional teriyaki sauce, as needed.
  • Bake for 14-16 minutes until an inserted thermometer reaches 125F-135F.
  • Remove salmon from oven and brush with additional teriyaki sauce, if desired.
  • Serve with sliced green onions.

Notes

  • Use fresh ingredients. This is key for the best tasting teriyaki glazed salmon.
  • Marinate the salmon for at least 30 minutes. This will help to ensure that your salmon is full of flavor and not dry.
  • For an extra burst of flavor, brush more teriyaki sauce over the salmon before serving.
