Miso-Marinated Salmon

Directions

1. 1
   Marinate the salmon by first putting the fillets in a shallow dish thats large enough to hold them in a single layer.
2. 2
   In a small mixing bowl, stir together the mirin, miso, sugar, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil.
3. 3
   Pour the marinade over the salmon fillets, turning them to coat on both sides.
4. 4
   Cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or as long as overnight.
5. 5
   About half an hour before serving time, preheat the broiler.
6. 6
   Transfer the salmon fillets to a broiler pan or baking dish thats large enough to hold them in a single layer.
7. 7
   Place them under the broiler and cook until nicely browned and barely cooked through in the center, 3 to 4 minutes per side (if the broiler is on high) or 6-7 minutes per side (if the broiler is on low).
8. 8
   Broil time will depend on your oven and fish thickness.
9. 9
   Make sure to turn them carefully with a spatula halfway through the cook time.
