Orange Teriyaki Salmon

 

 This is such a delicious and easy way to make salmon. It’s definitely one of my favorite salmon recipes. I usually serve it over a bed of steamed white rice and it’s absolutely delicious!

 Orange Teriyaki Salmon

 4 Nice 6 oz. Salmon Filets

Orange Teriyaki Sauce:

2 teaspoon Cornstarch

4 teaspoons water

⅔ cup Orange Juice

1 teaspoon Orange Zest

⅓ cup Soy Sauce

¼ cup Brown Sugar

1 teaspoon Ginger minced

2 cloves Garlic minced

½ teaspoon Sesame Oil

 

In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water. Add all sauce ingredients to a small saucepan including cornstarch mixture. Bring sauce to a low simmer and cook for about 3-5 minutes. When sauce lightly thickens, remove from heat and transfer to a bowl to cool.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While your sauce is cooling, preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Line a baking sheet with a lightly oiled sheet of foil. Place salmon filets on the sheet and baste generously with sauce, reserving about half of the sauce for later use.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Place salmon in the oven and bake for 14 minutes. When salmon is nice and flaky, it's ready.

Remove salmon from the oven and baste with sauce again. Place salmon under the broiler for about a minute or until you get a golden lightly charred top. 

Serve salmon over a bed of steamed rice with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, chopped green onion and sesame seeds. Enjoy!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Notes

Store leftover salmon in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.

 If you don't have fresh garlic you can use 1 teaspoon garlic powder

If you don't have fresh ginger use ½ teaspoon ground ginger.
