Miso Salmon Recipe

I'm obsessed with this Broiled Miso Salmon, it's perfectly charred on the edges with crispy skin and the sweet miso marinade is delicious!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound skin-on wild salmon (cut into 4 equal portions, or you can use cod, sea bass, black cod, trout or arctic char)
  • 1/4 cup white miso (available at amazon, or Asian, gourmet markets)
  • 1/2 cup mirin
  • 2 garlic cloves (crushed)
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 scallion (green parts only, thinly sliced)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a small bowl, combine miso, mirin, garlic and ginger.
  2. Pour 1/4 of the marinade in a shallow dish or glass pie plate, place fish flesh-side down, and top with remaining marinade.  Cover with plastic and place in refrigerator, allow to marinate at least 6 hours or as long as overnight.
  3. Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Preheat oven to broil on high.
  4. Transfer salmon to a sheet pan lined with foil. Discard excess marinade.
  5. Place fish on the second rack from the top and broil 6-7 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
  6. If you wish to serve the fish without the skin, carefully slide a fish spatula between the skin and flesh.
  7. Garnish with scallions and serve.
