Notes

  • For the juiciest results, avoid overcooking the salmon.
  • Fresh salmon works best, but properly thawed frozen salmon can also be used.
  • Do not marinate salmon for too long because the texture may become softer.
  • For extra glaze, brush additional soyaki sauce during the last few minutes of baking.
  • This recipe pairs especially well with jasmine rice, steamed vegetables, or bok choy soyaki.
  • Leftover baked soyaki salmon can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
