Directions:Wash salmon and thoroughly pat dry.
Whisk together the olive oil, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger in a small baking dish. Place the salmon in the dish, and turn to coat. Cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
While the salmon is marinating, preheat the broiler to high, and adjust the oven rack to the middle position. Line a small baking sheet with aluminum foil, and place a metal cooling rack on top. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the glaze. Cover, and set aside until ready to use.
After the salmon has marinated, place it directly on the wire rack, skin side down. Sprinkle with kosher salt and black pepper. Broil for 10-12 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork. Adjust cooking time as necessary, depending on the thickness of your salmon - mine was about an inch at its thickest point.
Serve salmon immediately with the glaze, green onions, and a sprinkling of sesame seeds. Serve with rice, if desired. |
