Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Whisk soy sauce, honey, ginger, and rice vinegar in a small bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Pat salmon dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Heat olive oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, ~90 seconds.

  4. Step 4

    Place salmon skin-side up in the pan. Sear without moving for 3-4 minutes until skin crisps.

  5. Step 5

    Flip salmon, then pour the glaze over top. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until edges are opaque.

  6. Step 6

    Spoon glaze over salmon once more. Transfer to a plate.

  7. Step 7

    Garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds. Drizzle any pan glaze over top.
