Poached Salmon With Homemade Teriyaki Sauce

Ingredients

5 Salmon fillets

3/4 cup mirin

4 tablespoons lime juice

2/3 cup green onions, chopped

2 tablespoons sesame seeds

In a large saucepan, add the mirin, soy sauce, lime juice, and ginger. Combine well and turn on medium heat.

Once the sauce starts simmering, add the salmon fillets with the flesh side turned down on the sauce. Cook for 5 minutes.

Rotate the fillets to sides every 5 minutes until the fish has cooked for a total of 15 minutes.

Remove salmon fillets on a plate.

Add green onions and sesame seeds to the sauce and simmer for 5 more minutes. The sauce should be thickened by now.

Serve salmon on each plate and drizzle with sauce. Serve with white rice and roasted broccoli for a complete meal.
