Ingredients
  

  • 2 6-ounce salmon fillets
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • 1 tablespoon green onions chopped (for garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger until well combined.
  2. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the top, ensuring the salmon is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
  3. Preheat your grill or a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Remove the salmon from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later.
  5. Cook the salmon fillets for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and flake easily with a fork.
  6. While the salmon is cooking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
  7. Drizzle the thickened sauce over the cooked salmon fillets.
  8. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
