Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salmon

    Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, add vegetable oil and heat over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  3. 3

    Sear the Salmon

    Place salmon fillets skin-side down in the skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until cooked through.

  4. 4

    Make Wasabi Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and wasabi paste until well combined. Adjust wasabi to taste.

  5. 5

    Plate the Dish

    Place the seared salmon on a plate. Drizzle with ponzu sauce, top with a dollop of wasabi aioli, and garnish with sriracha and tobiko.
