Ingredients

2 servings

1 lb . salmon fillet
1 tablespoon oil
white and black sesame seeds (for garnishing)
3 tablespoons soy sauce (or Tamari)
½ cup mirin
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps

Add all the ingredients for the Teriyaki Sauce to a saucepan and simmer over low heat. Once the sauce thickens, remove it from the heat and let it cool.
Heat a pan or skillet over low to medium heat. Add a bit of oil and pan-sear the salmon, skin-side down, until the bottom is crispy. Cover the pan to ensure the salmon cooks through.
Remove the salmon from the heat, drizzle with teriyaki sauce, and garnish with sesame seeds. Serve immediately with steamed rice.
