Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp white miso paste
  • 2 tbsp hot honey
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 clove minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 sliced scallion

Instructions

1
Begin by patting your salmon fillets completely dry with paper towels to ensure a perfect sear.
2
In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat, swirling constantly until it turns a deep golden brown and releases a nutty aroma.
3
Immediately whisk in the white miso paste, hot honey, ginger, and garlic until the mixture forms a glossy, emulsified glaze.
4
Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot skillet, searing for 4 minutes until crispy.
5
Flip the fillets carefully and pour the brown butter-miso emulsion over the top, basting continuously for another 2-3 minutes as the sauce caramelizes and thickens into a rich lacquer.
6
Remove from heat once the salmon reaches your desired flakiness, garnish generously with sesame seeds and fresh scallions, and serve immediately.
