Orange Sesame Glazed Salmon W/ Extra Crispy Skin
- 4 (4 ounce) salmon fillets, skin on, rinsed, patted dry
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 13 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 34 cup water (1/2 cup reserved for cooking process)
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons seasoned rice vinegar
- 12 cup orange marmalade
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon sriracha sauce (if you don't like it spice, omit)
- 14 cup red onion, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh gingerroot, grated (you can leave the skin on)
- 1 bunch green onion, chopped (white parts included, reserve some for garnish)
- 18 teaspoon garlic salt (or to taste)
- 12 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper (or to taste)
- In a small bowl mix together all marinade ingredients.
- Be sure to reserving 1/2 cup of the water to use during the cooking process.
- Set aside.
- Preheat oven to broil with oven rack placed in the upper center position.
- Prepare a baking sheet by layering 2 strips of foil to cover the bottom of pan, then place an non-coated cooling rack over that.
- Brush skin side of salmon with olive oil (this will help to insure skin doesn't stick and become extra crispy), place fillets about 1-2 inches apart on the cooling rack in the center of backing sheet.
- Reserve half of marinade for glazing.
- Brush tops and sides of the salmon fillets with marinade.
- Let sit for 5-6 minutes.
- Broil, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes (or until fish flakes easily with a fork).
- Because you're broiling, it will cook quickly.
- Glaze OFTEN with reserved marinade to get a super sweet and sticky coating.
- Pour reserved water in bottom of pan half way through cooking time (helps finish cooking the fish and also keeps it moist and flaky).
- I like to serve mine with ginger lime shrimp and a roasted veggie like asparagus :).
