Quick enough to make on busy weeknights (it takes just 8 minutes to cook under the broiler), but impressive enough to serve to guests, this simple miso-glazed salmon recipe is one to keep tucked up your sleeve no matter the season.
I tested and re-tested this simple recipe and discovered a few tips I'm sharing in the post that make it pretty much foolproof.
White miso takes center stage in the 5-ingredient marinade, its mellow, salty flavor the perfect complement to the salmon.
As a bonus, the marinade also acts as the glaze that caramelizes beautifully under the broiler and gives the salmon those crispy edges everyone loves.
This is a flexible recipe that can be served with steamed rice and veggies, added to meal prep grain bowls, or flaked over a bed of leafy greens for a Japanese-inspired salad.
It's so good, so flavorful, and the perfect way to get in your essential fatty acids.
Enjoy!
