Honey Miso Salmon Ingredients:
- 4 salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons miso paste (white or yellow)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced (optional)
- Sesame seeds and green onions for garnish
How to make Honey Miso Salmon :
Make the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the miso paste, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and minced garlic until smooth.
Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, making sure they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Bake the Salmon: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the marinated salmon fillets on the sheet, skin-side down. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions, and serve hot. Pair with steamed rice or veggies.
Recipe Notes:
Flavor Profile: The combination of sweet honey and savory miso creates a deliciously balanced glaze.
Serving Suggestions: Best served with rice and a side of steamed or stir-fried vegetables.
Storage: Leftover salmon can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat gently to avoid drying out.
