Method

Prepare the Teriyaki Marinade

  1. 1

    Mix the Marinade

    In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Whisk until well blended.

  2. 2

    Thicken the Marinade

    In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water until smooth. Add this mixture to the marinade and whisk well to combine. Set aside.

Marinate the Salmon

  1. 3

    Marinate

    Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the teriyaki marinade over them. Make sure the salmon is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Cook the Salmon

  1. 4

    Preheat the oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 5

    Prepare a baking sheet

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

  3. 6

    Bake the Salmon

    Remove the salmon from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and place the fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

  4. 7

    Heat the Marinade

    While the salmon is baking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer until it thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.

  5. 8

    Serve

    Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the oven and drizzle the thickened teriyaki sauce over the fillets. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
