Ingredients
Scale
For the Salmon:
- 2 1/2 lbs salmon filet, sliced into 2-inch wide pieces
For the Teriyaki Sauce:
- 3 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
- 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 large or 3 medium garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger (or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger)
To Serve:
- Sesame seeds (optional)
- Chopped green onion (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat the oven to 400˚F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil and lightly grease it for easy cleanup.
- Make the Teriyaki Sauce: In a bowl, combine the teriyaki sauce, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, white vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Stir until the brown sugar dissolves.
- Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon slices in a mixing bowl and pour the teriyaki sauce over them. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate for 20 minutes, either at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
- Bake the Salmon: Arrange the marinated salmon pieces on the prepared baking sheet, reserving the marinade. Bake for 12–16 minutes, depending on the thickness, until the salmon is flaky and cooked through.
- Prepare the Glaze: While the salmon bakes, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat.
- Finish and Serve: After removing the salmon from the oven, brush each piece with the thickened teriyaki glaze. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
