Ingredients

  • 2 pieces Salmon fillets
  • 2 tablespoons Gochujang paste
  • 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
  • 1 cup Cooked white rice
  • 2 stalks, sliced Green onions(optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, whisk together gochujang, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil to form the glaze.

  2. 2

    Pat the salmon fillets dry, season lightly with salt, and heat a non‑stick skillet over medium‑high heat.

  3. 3

    Add the salmon, skin side down, and sear for 4‑5 minutes until the skin is crisp; flip and cook another 3‑4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Brush the glaze over the salmon during the last minute of cooking, allowing it to caramelize slightly.

  5. 5

    While the salmon finishes, reheat the cooked rice and divide it between two plates.

  6. 6

    Serve each salmon fillet on top of the rice, drizzle any remaining glaze from the pan, and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
