Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • 1/2 tsp fresh ginger grated
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 2 stalks sliced scallions

Instructions

1
Begin by patting your salmon fillets completely dry with paper towels to ensure a superior, crispy sear.
2
Season lightly with salt.
3
In a cold skillet, add the butter and heat over medium heat until it begins to foam and turn a nutty, golden-brown color.
4
Carefully place the salmon skin-side down in the butter.
5
Sear for 4-5 minutes without moving it to achieve a glass-like crisp skin.
6
Flip the fillets gently.
7
In a small ramekin, whisk together the miso, honey, chili flakes, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil.
8
Pour this mixture into the pan around the salmon and let it bubble and thicken into a glossy, aromatic glaze.
9
Baste the fish continuously for 2 minutes.
10
Once the glaze clings to the salmon, plate immediately.
11
Garnish generously with toasted sesame seeds and fresh sliced scallions for a vibrant, professional finish.
