Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 tsp furikake seasoning
  • 1 tsp chili crisp oil
  • microgreens for garnish

Instructions

1
First, pat the salmon fillets completely dry with paper towels to ensure a superior crust.
2
In a small stainless steel pan over medium heat, melt the butter until it turns golden brown and smells nutty.
3
Whisk in the miso paste, mirin, and maple syrup until emulsified into a silky glaze.
4
Sear the salmon, skin-side down, in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes until the skin is shatteringly crisp.
5
Flip the fish and brush liberally with the miso-brown butter glaze, cooking for another 2 minutes until just opaque.
6
While the fish rests, mash the avocados with lime juice and a heavy sprinkle of furikake.
7
Plate the salmon atop a generous mound of the smashed avocado, drizzling the remaining glaze over the fish and finishing with a vibrant spoonful of chili crisp oil and fresh microgreens.
