Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 2 large shallots (thinly sliced)
  • 1 tbsp chili crunch oil
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds
  • fresh scallions for garnish

Instructions

1
Begin by patting your salmon fillets completely dry with paper towels to ensure a perfect sear.
2
In a small stainless steel skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until it begins to foam and turn a nutty, golden-brown hue.
3
Remove from heat immediately, whisking in the miso paste, mirin, and maple syrup until a smooth, velvety glaze forms.
4
In the same pan, quickly fry the shallot slices in a splash of neutral oil until translucent and crispy, then set aside.
5
Sear the salmon skin-side down in a hot pan for 4 minutes until crispy, flip, and brush generously with the miso-butter glaze.
6
Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the glaze caramelizes into a glossy finish.
7
Plate the salmon, top with the reserved crispy shallots, a spoonful of chili crunch, and a flurry of sliced scallions to serve.
