Teriyaki Salmon Recipe
- 1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari
- 1/4 cup mirin
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 skin-on, boneless salmon fillets
- 4 small zucchini, trimmed and halved lengthwise
- 2 green onions, sliced, for garnish
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for garnish
- Steamed rice, for serving
- To make the sauce, in a saucepan over medium heat, combine the soy sauce, mirin, sugar, ginger and garlic.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the mixture becomes slightly syrupy, about 5 minutes.
- Let cool.
- Place the salmon in a shallow baking dish.
- Pour half of the teriyaki sauce over the salmon and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Reserve the other half of the sauce.
- Prepare a charcoal grill for medium-high heat.
- Clean and oil the grill grate.
- Brush the cut sides of the zucchini with some of the reserved teriyaki and arrange on the one side of the grill.
- Remove the salmon from the teriyaki, letting any excess drip off, and place skin-side-down over the other side of the grill.
- Cover the grill and cook until the salmon is medium-rare to medium.
- Transfer the salmon and zucchini to a platter, garnish with the green onions, and serve with rice.
- Pass more of the reserved sauce on the side.
