Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water. Add all sauce ingredients to a small saucepan including cornstarch mixture. Bring sauce to a low simmer and cook for about 3-5 minutes. When sauce lightly thickens, remove from heat and transfer to a bowl to cool.
  • While your sauce is cooling, preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Line a baking sheet with a lightly oiled sheet of foil. Place salmon filets on the sheet and baste generously with sauce, reserving about half of the sauce for later use.
  • Place salmon in the oven and bake for 14 minutes. When salmon is nice and flakey, it's ready.
  • Remove salmon from the oven and baste with sauce again. Place salmon under the broiler for about a minute or until you get a golden lightly charred top.
  • Serve salmon over a bed of steamed rice with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, chopped green onion and sesame seeds. Enjoy!

Notes

Store leftover salmon in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. If you don't have fresh garlic substitute for 1 teaspoon garlic powder. If you don't have fresh ginger substitute for ½ teaspoon ground ginger.
