Ingredients
SALMON For best results, look for salmon fillets that are firm and brightly colored, without tears or discoloration. Make sure the fillets don’t have a fishy odor. If using frozen, thaw the fillets fully and pat them dry before cooking! TERIYAKI GLAZE All the ingredients for a homemade Teriyaki sauce are probably in the pantry already!

If you have an option of a few brands, keep an eye on the sodium level, store-bought sauce can be salty. Stir in a splash of citrus juice (lemon, pineapple or orange) to brighten the flavor of a store-bought sauce.
Tips
Don’t overcook, the shape of your salmon can determine the cooking time. After about 5 minutes per side, salmon should flake easily with a fork but still be slightly translucent in the center. Add a splash of orange or pineapple juice to the sauce mixture to change the flavor. If using store-bought sauce, add a bit of citrus juice to brighten the flavor.
