US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Combine all marinade ingredients in a medium bowl (miso, mirin, brown sugar, and soy sauce) until the brown sugar has completely dissolved. Set aside 1 tablespoon of the marinade to use as a sauce later.
  • Place salmon in the marinade bowl, and flip to coat well. Place skin side up, and spoon extra marinade on top.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge to marinade for 1-2 hours.
  • Preheat your oven broiler to high, and place the top rack of your over 8" away from the bottom of your broiler. Place the marinated salmon skin side down on a baking sheet lined with foil (for easy clean up), making sure to leave a few inches between the filets. Broil until the salmon is golden on top and flakey in the center, about 8-10 minutes. This will vary with how thick your salmon is, for thinner salmon, check around 6 minutes. Thicker filets can go longer. I prefer to pull the salmon while the center is a bit under, and allow it to come to temp on the counter as it rests (way better than over cooked salmon!).
  • Sprinkle salmon with sesame seeds and green onions before serving, and enjoy!
