instructions
    1

    In a small bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of honey, the minced garlic, grated ginger, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. This will be your marinade.

    2

    Place the salmon filets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the top. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

    3

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

    4

    Remove the salmon from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Discard the marinade.

    5

    Cook the salmon on the grill for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until it flakes easily with a fork and has a nice char.

    6

    While the salmon is grilling, slice the green onions for garnish.

    7

    Once the salmon is cooked, take it off the grill and sprinkle with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for a finishing touch.

    8

    Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious grilled salmon!

How to be creative
  • Add a splash of sake to the marinade for an extra layer of flavor.
  • Top grilled salmon with avocado slices for added creaminess.
  • Serve the salmon over a bed of sushi rice mixed with sesame oil.
Important Tips
  • Make sure your grill is well-preheated for a perfect char.
  • Do not overcook the salmon; it should be slightly pink in the center for optimal texture.
  • Try substituting maple syrup for honey for a different sweetness.
