Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F). If using a stovetop griddle, preheat it on medium-high heat.
Rinse the salmon steaks under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Brush each salmon steak on both sides with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic.
Stir the sauce mixture well and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent the salmon from sticking.
Place the salmon steaks on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, turning once, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Brush the salmon with the prepared hoisin BBQ sauce during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
Once cooked, transfer the salmon steaks to a serving platter. Drizzle a bit more of the hoisin BBQ sauce on top.
Garnish the salmon with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.
Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes, such as rice, grilled vegetables, or a fresh green salad.
