Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-8 oz each) salmon fillets
- 0.25 cup hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon (grated) fresh ginger
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 stalks (sliced) green onions
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly oil it to prevent sticking.
Season both sides of the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper, then place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, and sesame oil to form the glaze.
Brush a generous amount of the hoisin glaze over the top of each salmon fillet, ensuring even coverage.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
While the salmon bakes, slice the green onions and lightly toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown, about 2 minutes.
Remove the salmon from the oven and garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
