Our teriyaki has a lighter taste than a traditional teriyaki. We add tropical fruit flavors to bring out the natural sweetness of the sauce, and to balance the nuttiness of the Copper River Salmon.

  • 1 Tbs sugar
  • 2-3 thin slices of ginger

Cooking Instructions

Season MSC certified Copper River Salmon with salt and pepper. Heat vegetable oil on medium-hot heat, place salmon into pan (skin down) for 3 minutes or until the skin becomes crispy. Turn over to other side, after cooking for one minute add the teriyaki sauce mixture; let salmon cook for another 2-3 minutes or until the salmon is fully cooked. Remove the salmon fillets from the pan, and let it rest on a plate. Keep the remaining sauce simmering for another 2 minutes or until it reduces and thickens (discard ginger slices). Pour teriyaki sauce over the salmon fillets. Garnish with sesame seeds, green onions and a lemon wedge.
