  • 1 tbsp gochujang paste
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp chopped scallions
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

1
Begin by patting your salmon fillets completely dry with paper towels to ensure a superior crust.

Place salmon skin-side down, searing for 4 minutes until crispy.
