Emeril's Pan Seared Teriyaki Salmon
YIELD 4 servings
INGREDIENTS
| 1/2 cup | light soy sauce |
| 1/4 cup | mirin |
| 2 tablespoons | sugar |
| 2 tablespoons | peanut oil |
| 1 | lime, juiced |
| 1/2 teaspoon | sesame oil |
| 1 tablespoon | minced garlic |
| 1 tablespoon | minced ginger |
| 1 tablespoon | minced green onion bottoms |
| 1 (1‑inch) | piece fresh wasabi root, optional |
| 4 (6‑ounce) | salmon fillets |
| 2 teaspoons | vegetable oil |
| Lime slices, for garnish | |
| Fresh cilantro sprigs, for garnish | |
PREPARATION:
- Combine the soy sauce, mirin, sugar, peanut oil, lime juice, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, green onions, and wasabi, if using, in a blender and process on low for 1 minute, or until the ingredients are well incorporated. Transfer half of the sauce to a shallow dish and add the salmon fillets. Turn to coat well, and refrigerate, turning occasionally, for at least 2 hours and up to overnight. Transfer the remaining sauce to a non-reactive container and refrigerate until ready to cook the salmon.
- Heat a saute pan to medium high. Add vegetable oil and heat until oil starts to shimmer. Sear salmon, flesh side down for 3 minutes. Turn fish over and bring the heat down to medium. Add the remainder of the marinade and continue cooking until the salmon is just cooked through, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the salmon and turn the heat up to high. Reduce until teriyaki sauce has thickened slightly and coats the back of a spoon, 1 to 2 minutes.
- To serve, drizzled salmon with the thickened sauce. Garnish with lime slices and cilantro sprigs.
