Honey-Soy Broiled Salmon

 

Ingredients

· 1 scallion, minced

· 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce

· 1 tablespoon rice vinegar

· 1 tablespoon honey

· 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger

· 1 pound center-cut salmon fillet, skinned and cut into 4 portions

· 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds

 

Steps

1) Whisk scallion, soy sauce, vinegar, honey and ginger in a medium bowl until the honey is dissolved. Place salmon in a sealable plastic bag, add 3 tablespoons of the sauce ad refrigerate; let marinate for 15 minutes. Reserve the remaining sauce.

2) Preheat boiler. Line a small baking pan with foil and coat with cooking spray. Transfer the salmon to the pan, skinned-side down. (Discard the marinade). Broil the salmon 4 to 6 inches from the heat source until cooked through, 6 to 10minutes. Drizzle with the reserved sauce and garnish with sesame seeds.
