Recipe: #15235
October 26, 2014
"From Coastal Living, September 2007; modified recipe by Julia Rutland. NOTE: If you don't want to prepare salmon on top of the stove, it can also be roasted skin side down, without turning, in a glass baking dish sprayed with cooking spray, at 400F for 8-12 minutes, depending upon thickness of fillets. Baste with remainder of soy sauce mixture after roasting about 5 minutes. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and chives before serving."

Step 1
Combine brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, ginger root, and rice wine vinegar. Brush half of soy mixture over salmon, and let sit 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 2
Heat oils in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Saute salmon 2-4 minutes, depending upon thickness. (I usually buy thin fillets.)
