Our Teriyaki Salmon begins with succulent salmon fillets, marinated in a homemade teriyaki sauce bursting with umami. We use a blend of soy sauce, mirin, sake, ginger, and garlic to achieve the perfect balance of sweet and savory, ensuring each bite is packed with flavor. The salmon is then pan-seared or grilled to flaky perfection, with a glistening teriyaki glaze that caramelizes beautifully.
The real star of the show is the Pineapple Salsa! This vibrant salsa is a symphony of tropical flavors, featuring juicy chunks of ripe pineapple, diced red onion, bell pepper, cilantro, and a hint of jalapeño for a subtle kick. A squeeze of lime juice ties everything together, adding a bright acidity that cuts through the richness of the salmon and creates a delightful contrast.
This dish is not only incredibly delicious but also incredibly versatile. Serve it over a bed of fluffy rice, alongside quinoa, or even on a bed of greens for a light and healthy salad.
