Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic finely minced
  • 1 tablespoon whole coriander seeds
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 4 salmon fillets 5 ounces each, skinned
  • sea salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Grind coriander seeds in a spice grinder or crush with a mortar and pestle until coarsely ground.
  2. Make glaze: Stir together crushed coriander seeds, honey, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sesame oil and lemon juice in a small sauce bowl until combined.
  3. Grind pepper liberally over salmon and sprinkle lightly with sea salt. Then brush the top of each fillet with glaze; reserve remainder. Heat oil in the nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Cook salmon fillets, glazed sides down, 1 minute; reduce heat to medium-low, and cook 2 minutes more. Turn fillets over, and cook 3-5 minutes for medium or until salmon is slightly firm to the touch or until an instant meat thermometer registers 140-145 degrees.
  4. Transfer to a plate; loosely cover with foil to keep warm. Pour remaining glaze into skillet; bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook until glaze has thickened to the consistency of syrup, about 2-3 minutes. Add cilantro, transfer salmon to serving plates and drizzle with the yummy glaze.
