Teriyaki Salmon Recipe
Quick and easy Teriyaki Salmon recipe made with a homemade from-scratch teriyaki sauce. A simple, flavorful dinner ready in just 30 minutes!
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ pounds fresh salmon (skinless) cut into 4 equal portions
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
Teriyaki Sauce
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup water
- 2 tablespoons apple juice
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 2 tablespoons pineapple juice
- 4 ½ teaspoons cornstarch
- 3 ½ tablespoons sugar
- 1 ½ tablespoons honey
I always use Kosher salt in my kitchen! If using table salt, start with half the amount and adjust to taste, as it is much "saltier" by volume.
Instructions
- Preheat an oven to 350°F. In a small bowl, whisk together the apple juice, orange juice, pineapple juice, soy sauce, sugar, honey, and cornstarch. Pour the mixture into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat, whisking continuously, until the sauce thickens—about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Pat the salmon dry and season with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. Once hot, add the salmon and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Flip the salmon fillets and spoon your desired amount of sauce over the top of each piece. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 3 to 4 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired. Enjoy!
