Ingredients

Scale

For the Salmon:

  • 2 1/2 lbs salmon filet, sliced into 2-inch wide pieces

For the Teriyaki Sauce:

  • 3 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
  • 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large or 3 medium garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger (or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger)

To Serve:

  • Sesame seeds (optional)
  • Chopped green onion (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat the oven to 400˚F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil and lightly grease it for easy cleanup.
  2. Make the Teriyaki Sauce: In a bowl, combine the teriyaki sauce, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, white vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Stir until the brown sugar dissolves.
  3. Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon slices in a mixing bowl and pour the teriyaki sauce over them. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate for 20 minutes, either at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
  4. Bake the Salmon: Arrange the marinated salmon pieces on the prepared baking sheet, reserving the marinade. Bake for 12–16 minutes, depending on the thickness, until the salmon is flaky and cooked through.
  5. Prepare the Glaze: While the salmon bakes, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat.
  6. Finish and Serve: After removing the salmon from the oven, brush each piece with the thickened teriyaki glaze. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
