Ingredients

• 4 pieces Salmon fillets
• 4 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons Honey
• 2 teaspoons Rice vinegar
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Ginger
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil to form the glaze.

Step 3

Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season them with salt and black pepper.

Step 4

Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush a generous layer of the hoisin glaze over each fillet, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 5

Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.

Step 6

While the salmon is baking, finely chop the green onions and lightly toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden and fragrant, about 1–2 minutes.

Step 7

Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.

Step 8

Serve the hoisin glazed salmon with steamed rice, sautéed vegetables, or a fresh Asian-inspired salad for a complete meal.
