20 Minute Orange Teriyaki Salmon. Salmon filets pan fried and topped with an orange teriyaki glaze. A quick and easy weeknight meal!
Ingredients
- 2 salmon filets, skin on
- 1 tablespoon oil
- ¼ cup low sodium soy sauce, It is important to use low sodium. I find regular makes the sauce too salty
- ⅛ cup water
- 2-3 tablespoons light brown sugar, depending on how sweet you like it
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- 3 tablespoons fresh squeezed orange juice
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
- green onions for garnish, if desired
- sesame seeds for garnish, if desired
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large skillet. Add salmon filets and cook 3-4 minutes on each side until desired doneness. (Don't forget to remove skin before serving)
- Meanwhile add soy sauce, water, brown sugar, vinegar and orange juice to a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer.
- Add cornstarch and water to a small bowl and whisk to combine.
- Slowly whisk in the cornstarch mixture to the sauce and simmer until thickened, 2-3 minutes.
- Serve immediately with the orange teriyaki sauce drizzled on top as well as green onions and sesame seeds for garnish, if desired.
