Preparation Instructions

  • If using previously frozen salmon, let defrost in the fridge overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Prep the teriyaki sauce.
  • Lightly oil the bottom of a baking dish to prevent any sticking.
  • Cut your salmon into one inch or so cubes. Cover with about half of the teriyaki sauce.
  • If you want to cook the filets whole, simply add the salmon, skin side down, with half of the teriyaki sauce.
  • Allow the salmon to marinate for about 20 minutes to absorb some of the sauce, or bake immediately if in a hurry.
  • Bake for 12-18 minutes depending on thickness; cubed salmon will cook faster, about 10-14 minutes.
  • Check them at 10 minutes, they should flake easily with a fork.
  • You can then broil for a couple of minutes to get the tops nice and crispy if desired.
  • Toss or drizzle with the remaining teriyaki sauce, reserving some for rice or steamed veggies as desired.
  • Sprinkle with sesame seeds, red pepper flakes, and chopped scallions and enjoy!

Notes

Once prepared, this salmon will store in the fridge for about 2 days. Reheat on the stove or in the oven for best results. Frozen salmon can be cooked directly from frozen, adding about 5 minutes of cook time.
