🧂 Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (skin-on or skinless, 150–200g each)
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 1 tbsp sake (optional)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

Step 1: Make the Teriyaki Sauce

❓ FAQs About Teriyaki Salmon

Q1: Can I use bottled teriyaki sauce instead of homemade?
A1: Yes, but homemade sauce has a fresher and richer flavor with better control over sweetness.

Q2: Can I bake Teriyaki Salmon instead of pan-searing?
A2: Absolutely. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 12–15 minutes, brushing with sauce halfway through.

Q3: What kind of salmon works best?
A3: Fresh Atlantic or sockeye salmon fillets work great; skin-on helps keep moisture.

Q4: Can I meal-prep Teriyaki Salmon?
A4: Yes, store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on a pan.

Q5: How can I make it gluten-free?
A5: Use tamari or gluten-free soy sauce instead of regular soy sauce.

🥢 Tips for Perfect Teriyaki Salmon

  • Don’t overcook salmon — it should flake easily and stay moist inside.
  • Let the sauce thicken before glazing for a glossy finish.
  • Add a touch of lemon juice for freshness.
