A five star salmon baked with the best homemade sesame teriyaki sauce. This is easily one of the best things that you will eat!
Ingredients
4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup low sodium soy sauce (regular soy sauce will work, just reduce salt)
¼ cup cider vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
¼ teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon sesame oil
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
1 Tablespoon water
green onions, for garnish
sesame seeds, for garnish
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a 9x13 inch pan with non stick cooking spray and set aside.
In a small saucepan, whisk together the brown sugar, soy sauce, cider vinegar, garlic, pepper, salt, and sesame oil. In a small bowl, whisk together the water and cornstarch. Slowly whisk into the mixture.
Bring to boil and boil about 1-2 minutes until the mixture just starts to thicken. Remove from heat and reserve ¼ cup of the sauce for later.
Place the salmon in the pan and pour the sauce on top. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 15-17 minutes until the salmon is opaque in the center. I like to remove the aluminum foil the last few minutes of baking to brown the tops. Remove from the oven.
Brush the top of the salmon with the reserved ¼ cup of the sauce. Garnish with green onion and sesame seeds. Delicious served with rice.
