Honey-Soy Broiled Salmon
Latest Review: "This is a pretty good recipe. I modified it a ...more"
  • Prep:
  • Cook:
  • Ready in: 40 mins
  • Serves:

Ingredients

  • 1 scallion, minced
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
  • 1 pound center-cut salmon fillet, skinned (see Tip) and cut into 4 portions
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds (see Tip)

Cooking Instructions

1. Whisk scallion, soy sauce, vinegar, honey and ginger in a medium bowl until the honey is dissolved. Place salmon in a sealable plastic bag, add 3 tablespoons of the sauce and refrigerate; let marinate for 15 minutes. Reserve the remaining sauce.

2. Preheat broiler. Line a small baking pan with foil and coat with cooking spray. Transfer the salmon to the pan, skinned-side down. (Discard the marinade.) Broil the salmon 4 to 6 inches from the heat source until cooked through, 6 to 10 minutes. Drizzle with the reserved sauce and garnish with sesame seeds.

Tips: How to skin a salmon fillet: Place salmon fillet on a clean cutting board, skin-side down. Starting at the tail end, slip the blade of a long knife between the fish flesh and the skin, holding down firmly with your other hand. Gently push the blade along at a 30° angle, separating the fillet from the skin without cutting through either.

To toast seeds: Cook in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes.

My kids loved it!

This is a pretty good recipe. I modified it a bit though. I baked the salmon instead. The only thing I would do next time is to double the ingredients. It didnt seem to be enough to drizzle on top, otherwise it was great!

LOVE this!

I don't particularly care for fish, but trying to be heart-healthy I decided to try it. OH MAN! I am hooked (no pun intended) I made the whole recipe for myself figuring I would have leftovers to freeze - nope - at it for dinner and finished it for lunch the next day. Easy and fast to make, tastes great. I even sent the recipe off to everyone in my family to try. Would probably be great with tuna or any fleshy fish...or chicken.

Deliecious but confused.

Question about this recipe. Step 2 says to put the fish on the pan "skinned-side down." Shouldn't that read "skin-side down?" I don't understand why you would expose the skin to the broiler heat rather than the edible meat.

Excellent

This by far was the best marinade I have used.
