Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets
- 1/4 cup mirin
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/3 cup water
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
Recipe Notes
- You can marinate the fish longer, if needed.
- Do not overcook the salmon.
- For a gluten-free dinner, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
- If desired, leave the skin on and crisp it up quickly under the broiler or in the skillet.
Here's how to make it:
- Combine the mirin, brown sugar, soy sauce and garlic in a plastic zipper bag. Squish to combine. Add the fish and let it marinate about 20 minutes.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the salmon from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and put into the pan. Cook until a golden color develops, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip the fish over, reduce heat to medium and pour in the marinade, water and rice wine vinegar. Cook about 4 to 5 minutes or until fish is cooked through.
