Pan Fried Teriyaki Salmon

1 cup teriyaki sauce – find recipe HERE

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.
