- 2 lbs (1 kg) Salmon fillet
- ¼ cup Shallots chopped
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- ½ tsp Salt
- ½ tsp Pepper
Teriyaki marinade
- 2 tbsp Low sodium soy sauce
- 2 cloves Fresh garlic or 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 inch Fresh ginger or 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 2 tbsp Dark brown sugar

- 1 tsp Corn starch
- ⅓ cup (80 ml) Low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 1 clove Fresh garlic sliced
- ¼ inch Gresh ginger sliced
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar (or 2 tbsp mirin)
- 2 tbsp Honey
Instructions
- Teriyaki marinade - In a small bowl, combine all the marinade ingredients: soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, sesame, and olive oil. Combine well.
- Teriyaki sauce - In a small saucepan, add the water, cornstarch, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and honey. Place over medium heat and simmer until it thickens to a syrup consistency. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Bake salmon
- Preheat the oven to 400 F / 200 C / Gas Mark 6
- Take the salmon out of the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to an hour.
- Line a baking tray with aluminum foil. Then, generously spray it with oil. Or use a baking dish with oil.
- Place the salmon fillet on the aluminum foil. Brush with lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Then, pour the marinade all over the salmon.
- Fold the foil close to the salmon so the juices do not burn easily in the baking tray. Then, place the lemon slices and sprinkle some more chopped dill (or parsley) on top.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until done. Alternatively, you can bake for 15 minutes, brush with teriyaki sauce, and bake another 5 to 10 minutes. Total time - 20 to 25 minutes. As a guide:- The recommended internal temperature for cooking salmon is - medium 145 F to 147 F or 60 to 63°C.- But, it can also be served at medium-rare, 122 to 127°F or 50 to 53°C (this is how I served my salmon).
- Remove from the oven. Glaze with some teriyaki sauce and garnish with fresh green onions and sliced ginger.
