Equipment

1 Mixing bowl
Oven safe skillet or a baking dish

Ingredients

4 salmon fillets skinless
2 tablespoon white miso paste
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon soy sauce
½ tablespoon fish sauce
½ tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

Preheat the broiler to high and position the oven rack as close to the top as possible.
In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste, honey, soy sauce, fish sauce, and olive oil until smooth.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and place them on a baking sheet lined with foil, or in an oven-proof skillet (I use a cast iron skillet). Spoon the glaze over the salmon and spread it evenly to coat the top and sides of each fillet.
Place under the broiler and broil for 8–10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the glaze is caramelized and the salmon is cooked through. Keep a close eye on it — the honey in the glaze can go from perfectly caramelized to burnt quickly under the broiler.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately topped with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.

Notes

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. The glaze can be made ahead and kept in the fridge for up to a week.
