Simple Asian Glazed Salmon Ingredients

Once you taste how amazing this Asian glazed salmon is, you won’t believe it is made with just a few easy ingredients! Recipes that taste amazing but don’t require me to buy all new ingredients get an A+ in my book. Measurements for each ingredient are listed in the recipe card below.

Brown Sugar: The sweetness of the glaze comes from brown sugar. Once dissolved, it helps to create the perfect texture as well. Soy Sauce: Original Kikkoman soy sauce is typically what I have in my cupboard, but you opt for a low-sodium variety, too. This will help cut down on the salt content of the glaze.Hoisin Sauce: Hoisin sauce is the secret ingredient to so many Asian-inspired dishes. If you haven’t tried it before, it is salty with a hint of sweetness, and has strong umami flavor. It comes in handy for other recipes of mine like general tsos and kung pao chicken, so pick some up next time you make a trip to your local Asian market! It will come in handy, I promise!Ginger: Ginger is very aromatic and will enhance all of the flavors in the glaze so that they eminate perfectly in your mouth. In this recipe, the ginger I use is peeled and grated.Dried Red Pepper Flakes: Add red pepper flakes to taste for slight heat and additional texture. Garlic: Minced garlic is going to do a lot of the heavy lifting in the sauce to give you the perfect savory flavor. Don’t skip it!Lime Juice: Adds the perfect hint of tart, tangy flavor.Salmon: I like to use salmon fillets that are boneless, skinless, and roughly the same thickness. This way, they all cook at the same rate.

How to Make Asian Glazed Salmon

This is the ultimate dish for busy weeknights. You get a tasty, nutritious meal in less than 20 minutes, start to finish! I am sure it will become a regular in your weekly dinner lineup because of how incredibly easy it is to make!

Salmon: I try to pick wild-caught salmon because it is less fatty and healthier than farmed salmon is. It is also more sustainable! Wild-caught salmon will be darker and more vibrant in color than its farmed counterparts. Try to pick salmon that looks moist and doesn’t have brown spots around the edges.Fillet Sizes: The thicker a salmon fillet is, the longer it takes to cook. I recommend choosing fillets that are roughly the same size and thickness so that they all cook up quickly and thoroughly.Why Broil: Broiling is one of my favorite ways to cook up salmon. Not only is it easy, it keeps your fish tender while creating the perfect, caramelized top.Thickening Glaze: If you want to thicken your sauce, you can add a teaspoon of cornstarch at a time until you have reached your desired consistency.Additional Flavors: You can customize your glaze with other ingredients like honey and hot sauce to adjust heat and sweetness to your liking.When Salmon Is Done: You will know that your salmon is done cooking when it turns opaque and flaky. Keep in mind, if your fillets are thick it may need a few more minutes of cooking before you reach this point.

Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.Reheating: You can microwave your salmon on 50% power for 30 second intervals or until heated through. You can also pop it in the oven, wrap it in tin foil, at 275 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes.
