Juicy honey miso salmon, baked until sticky and caramelized is the perfect easy dinner recipe served with rice and greens. This is a delicious way to prepare fresh salmon that takes minutes to throw together. The miso glaze is full of flavor and tastes amazing with the rich salmon.

Ingredients

Full recipe with amounts can be found in the recipe card. 

  • Salmon. I used skin-on salmon fillets but feel free to use skinless salmon. This works well with other fish as well. Cod, in particular, is delicious prepared this way.
  • Mirin. Sake or sherry can be substituted.
  • Rice vinegar. 
  • Miso paste. 
  • Honey. Brown sugar can be used.
  • Soy sauce. Use tamari or coconut aminos for a gluten free substitute.
  • Fresh garlic. 

How to make miso salmon

  1. Make the marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the mirin, rice vinegar, miso paste, honey, a tablespoon of soy sauce and grated garlic. Alternatively, blitz all the ingredients together in a blender or food processor. Pour the mixture over the salmon and allow to marinate for 10-20 minutes. You could also marinate the salmon in the refrigerator overnight in an airtight container.
  2. Bake the salmon: Preheat the oven to 220ºC/430ºF and switch on the oven’s broiler/grill. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Remove the salmon from the marinade and place on the sheet pan, skin side down, then brush over the marinade. Place on the middle rack of the oven and allow to bake (and broil) for 10-12 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and caramelized.
  3. Serve: Remove the salmon from the oven then serve with rice and greens of your choice.

How long to bake salmon

Salmon is cooked when the fish flakes apart easily with a fork. You can also press on the salmon with your finger and if the flesh flakes easily, it’s cooked. I usually bake salmon fillets for 10-12 minutes for a cooked, yet incredibly juicy doneness. You can let it go for 15 minutes if you prefer, however the salmon won’t be as moist.

    can you cook it in an air fryer instead of an oven?
