3 Tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste)
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 Tablespoon honey or maple syrup
1 Tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 Tablespoon sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 pound salmon fillets (4 ounces each)
1/4 cup scallions, thinly sliced (garnish)
2 Tablespoons toasted sesame seeds (optional garnish)
Directions
Preheat broiler and place the oven rack 6-8 inches away from broiler.
Pat salmon dry using a paper towel. Line a baking sheet with foil and transfer salmon (skin side down) to prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the gochujang paste, fresh ginger, garlic powder, soy sauce, honey, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, salt, and pepper.
Use a pastry brush or the back of a spoon to glaze salmon with gochujang sauce.
Broil salmon for 5-7 minutes, rotating pan halfway through. Keep an eye on it. If it starts to burn or smoke, move it to a lower rack.
Let salmon rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds. Serve with rice, noodles, or your favorite vegetable.
