Broiled Salmon with Ginger and Soy Recipe
- 4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets, pin bones removed
- Kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
- Finely grated zest of 1 orange
- 2/3 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Dry the salmon thoroughly with paper towels.
- Season the fillets all over with salt and arrange in a baking dish that holds them in a single layer.
- In a bowl, stir together the ginger, garlic, brown sugar, orange zest and juice, soy sauce or tamari, and olive oil.
- Drizzle the salmon fillets with 3 tablespoons of this marinade and set aside at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
- Pour the remaining marinade into a small saucepan and set aside.
- Turn on the broiler and position an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
- Place the salmon on a broiler pan skin-side up.
- Broil until the skin crisps, about 3 minutes.
- Carefully flip the salmon and continue to broil until the flesh is browned on top and done to your liking (about 3 minutes for medium rare).
- Set the saucepan containing the marinade over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until it gets fragrant and reduces by about a third to become a sauce, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer the salmon to a warmed serving platter or individual plates, pour the warm sauce over the top, and serve.
