Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp sesame oil
- 1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup white miso paste
- 3 Tbsp Sriracha
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 6 6-oz salmon fillets, about 1 inch thick
- Steamed rice, to serve
- Sliced green onions, for garnish (optional)
Directions
-
Preheat the broiler. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, and set aside.
-
In a small nonreactive mixing bowl, combine the oil, brown sugar, soy sauce, miso paste, Sriracha and garlic.
-
Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet, and baste with the Sriracha mixture. Broil 6 inches from the flame, basting the fish once more after 2-3 minutes. Broil for a total of 6-10 minutes, depending on the efficiency of your broiler. (I have an infrared broiler; I cooked the fish for 5 minutes total.) Watch the fish carefully while you cook. The basting liquid is prone to smoking (or burning) because of the sugar in it.
-
Serve over steamed rice, and garnish with green onions.
