Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp organic honey
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 bunch scallions
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds
  • flaky sea salt

Instructions

1
Begin by whisking the miso paste, honey, mirin, and grated ginger in a small bowl until smooth to create the umami-rich glaze.
2
Pat the salmon fillets completely dry with paper towels to ensure a superior crust.
3
Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
4
Place the salmon skin-side down, searing for 4 minutes until the skin is shatteringly crisp.
5
Flip the fillets carefully and brush the top generously with the miso-honey mixture.
6
Toss the scallions into the pan surrounding the salmon, allowing them to char for 2 minutes until tender.
7
Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for an additional 3 minutes to caramelize the glaze.
8
Serve immediately, garnished with toasted sesame seeds and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
