For the Salmon
4 sockeye salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon cooking oil (canola or avocado oil)
Garnishing’s
1 tablespoon green onions, sliced
1 tablespoon cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
Prepare the Salmon
Preheat a nonstick skillet with 1 tablespoon avocado oil over medium-high heat.
Season the sockeye salmon fillets with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
When the skillet is warmed and the oil is shimmering, place the salmon skin-side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, then carefully flip the salmon.
Brush a generous amount of teriyaki sauce on the salmon. Continue cooking for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) and the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Pour the rest of the teriyaki sauce into the skillet with the cooked salmon fillets and bring to a soft boil for 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat and place cooked salmon onto a large plate. Brush with more teriyaki sauce.
Serve

Plate the salmon over Jasmine rice and garnish with sesame seeds, green onions, and cilantro.
