Salmon Teriyaki

This authentic salmon teriyaki is a sophisticated yet simple dish that brings the bright, savoury flavours of Japanese cooking to your kitchen. By pan-searing the fillets first, you achieve a perfectly crisp skin that contrasts beautifully with the flaky, succulent fish underneath. The homemade glaze, reduced until thick and glossy, provides a deep umami finish without the need for the excessive sugars often found in shop-bought alternatives.

As a diabetes-friendly option, this recipe focuses on high-quality protein and heart-healthy fats. It is an excellent choice for a nutritious midweek meal, especially when served alongside steamed bok choy or a crisp cucumber salad. The addition of sansho powder offers a traditional citrus-like hum, elevating the dish into something truly special for guests or a quiet night in.

Ingredients for Salmon Teriyaki

  • 120ml sake

  • 60ml mirin (sweet Japanese rice wine)

  • 60ml soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more if needed

  • 4 (170g) skin-on, boneless salmon fillets (about 1 inch thick)

  • Kosher salt

  • Sansho powder (for serving

  • optional)

  • Sansho powder is made from the ground berries of the prickly ash tree.

How to make Salmon Teriyaki

Combine sake, mirin, and soy sauce in a small bowl; set teriyaki sauce aside.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Season salmon lightly with salt. Cook, skin side down, until skin is brown and crisp, about 4 minutes. Turn and cook until other side is just beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

Pour off fat in skillet. Bring teriyaki sauce to a boil in skillet over medium heat. Cook until reduced by two-thirds, about 4 minutes. Add salmon, skin side up, and cook, spooning sauce over, until sauce is syrupy and salmon is just cooked through, about 2 minutes.

Serve sprinkled with sansho powder, if desired.
