This Japanese-style broiled miso salmon is an easy recipe I came up with at the request of my family. It tastes just like some we've had at Japanese restaurants. Serve with sticky white rice and a light salad.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 2 (1 1/2-pound) salmon fillets, skin removed

  • 1 cup miso paste

  • ½ cup brown sugar

  • ½ cup prepared soy-ginger salad dressing

  • ¼ cup sake

  • ¼ cup water

  • 3 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar

  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds

  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. Fill a large skillet with about 1 inch of water and bring to a boil. Poach fish just until cooked on the outside, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer fillets to a broiler pan.

  3. Stir together miso paste, brown sugar, salad dressing, sake, water, rice vinegar, sesame seeds, and sesame oil in a small bowl. Spread over the tops of the salmon fillets.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until almost cooked through, about 15 minutes. Switch the oven to broil, and broil until the top is browned and bubbly, about 5 more minutes. Cut fillets into portions to serve.
