This classic salmon teriyaki is simple to make in a skillet. The fish does not need to be marinated, yet it still comes out flavorful. Pack the fish next to or on top of the rice in the bento box so that the rice will soak up the great flavor of the sauce.

Ingredients

Salmon Teriyaki

  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon (15

Method

  1. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, sugar, sake, and mirin. Set aside.
  2. Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium and add the teriyaki sauce to the pan. Spoon some sauce over the salmon to coat it and cook until the sauce is reduced.
