Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the 4 frozen salmon fillets dry, heat the 2 tbsp olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high, and sear the fillets skin-side down for 4 minutes until the skin is golden and releases cleanly.
- While the salmon sears, whisk together the 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 3 cloves minced garlic, 1 tsp grated ginger, and 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes in a small bowl until smooth.
- Flip the fillets flesh-side down for 1 minute, flip back skin-side down, pour the glaze over each fillet, and transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast for 8 to 10 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 125°F (52°C) for medium or 145°F (63°C) for fully cooked.
- Transfer the fillets to a plate, spoon any remaining pan glaze over the top, and garnish with the 1 tbsp sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Serve immediately.
Notes
These fillets vary more in thickness than you might expect, so the thermometer is your most reliable tool. The glaze can be made up to 5 days ahead and kept in the fridge. If your skillet is not oven-safe, transfer the seared fillets to a foil-lined baking sheet before adding the glaze and roasting.
