Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 tbsp furikake seasoning
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 scallion thinly sliced
  • pinch of sea salt

Instructions

1
Begin by patting your salmon fillets completely dry with paper towels to ensure a superior, crispy sear.
2
Season the skin side lightly with sea salt.
3
Heat the sesame oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
4
Place salmon skin-side down and cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden and shattered-glass crisp.
5
Flip carefully and cook for another 2 minutes.
6
While the fish cooks, melt the butter in a separate small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to foam and turns a nutty, golden-brown hue.
7
Whisk in the white miso, mirin, and maple syrup until emulsified into a glossy, savory-sweet glaze.
8
Pour this liquid gold over the salmon fillets in the pan, basting for 30 seconds.
9
Finally, toss the panko and furikake in the remaining butter residue for a quick toast, then shower the finished fillets with the crunchy topping and fresh scallions before serving immediately.
