Sesame Salmon

*Parsley*'s Note:

Simple and delicious salmon with an asian flair. Works on the grill, too. Prep time is marinating time.

• Total Time: 2 hrs 10 mins
• Prep Time: 2 hrs
• Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 4 tablespoons soy sauce
• 4 tablespoons sherry wine
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 2 teaspoons sesame oil
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1/4-1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, to taste
• 1 lb boneless salmon fillet, boneless salmon steaks can be used also
• 3 -4 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
• 4 tablespoons green onions, chopped

Directions:

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sherry, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, and red pepper flakes.
2. Place salmon in a glass baking dish and pour soy sauce mixture over salmon. Cover, and chill for at least 2 hours, turning once halfway through.
3. Once salmon has chilled, place on a heated broiler pan and broil 4" from the heat (or can use the grill) for about 5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through.
4. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onion just before serving.

Very good! I used more red pepper because we like things spicy and broiled a bit longer because the fillet was pretty thick. Served with sesame green beans and rice. I will definitely make this again!

Lovely. I made exactly as written, just scaling the recipe down to 1 serving. This was delicious and I will definitely repeat.

Very good fish which we enjoyed. I skipped the sesame seeds and green onions though. Thanks for sharing!
