Photo: Eli's Asian Salmon Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 pounds center-cut salmon fillet (1 1/2 inches thick)
- 1 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons)
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon toasted (dark) sesame oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chili paste
- 1/2 cup sliced scallions (2 scallions)
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic (8 large cloves)
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
- 1 1/2 cups panko (Japanese bread crumbs
Directions
Line an 8 by 12-inch baking pan with aluminum foil. Place the salmon in the pan.
In a mixing cup, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, lemon juice, oyster sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil, chili paste, scallions, garlic, and ginger. Pour 1/3 of soy sauce mixture over the salmon fillet. Sprinkle the panko evenly over the fillet. Pour the rest of the soy sauce mixture evenly over the panko. Be sure to soak the panko completely and if any runs off, spoon back onto the salmon. Set aside for 15 minutes, leaving all the sauce in the pan.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Roast the salmon for 18 to 20 minutes, or for about 12 minutes per inch at the thickest part of the salmon. The internal temperature will be 120 degrees F on a meat thermometer when it's done. Remove from the oven, wrap tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

I have never made an Ina recipe that hasn't wowed and this one is no exception. I was so distressed to read previous reviewers who hated this....my guests raved about it. Here's how I changed this a little....low sodium soy sauce, 2T brown sugar and about a quarter of a cup of honey. when I baked it at 400 degrees for about 18 minutes and then broiled it for about 2 minutes....it was amazing...

I stayed true to the recipe. Way too salty! It ruined the salmon.

Leary after reading the reviews, I used just 1/2 cup of soy, added a tablespoon of brown sugar and didn't let stand after roasting the full 18 minutes. I thought it was pretty good. Not sure I'd make it again, though.
