Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon hot honey (or regular honey)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon black sesame seeds, plus more for serving
  • 1 fillet of Coho Salmon or King Salmon from Shoreline Wild Salmon (approx. 1 lb)
  • 1 bunch scallions (3½ to 5 ounces, or at least 8 scallions), trimmed
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare honey soy glaze: Whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, honey, brown sugar, garlic, and black sesame seeds in small bowl. Set aside.
  2. Prepare salmon: Preheat oven to 450F. Run frozen salmon fillets under cold water to remove any ice glaze and pat dry with a paper towel. Place them (skin-side down if using skin-on fillets) on a 7×11-inch foil-lined baking sheet and pour honey soy mixture over the top. Cover with foil.
  3. Prepare scallions: Toss scallions with sesame oil and salt to fully coat and arrange in an even layer on a separate baking sheet.
  4. Bake salmon and scallions: Put salmon and scallions in the oven and bake for 8 minutes. Remove foil from salmon and flip scallions. Return to oven and bake for 6 more minutes. Remove scallions, which should be crispy and charred at the edges. Flip salmon and bake for another 2-4 minutes, depending on thickness of your fillets. It should be opaque and flake easily with a fork when done.
  5. Garnish and serve: Serve salmon over a bed of scallions. Garnish with additional black sesame seeds.
