Miso-Glazed Salmon

Usually I make my salmon with a little lemon juice and a little dill.  But our dill plant just died.  So I went looking for alternatives for tonight’s dinner.  I have seen this recipe at Cooking Light’s website before, and had it tucked away in the back of my mind.  All I can say is, yum!  After it finished cooking, I sprinkled the top with the chopped chives and also with some toasted sesame seeds and it looked so pretty.  I should have taken a picture.  Next time I cook it, I will.

Coming up: the stir fried zucchini and baby bok choy that I made as the side dish.


Miso-Glazed Salmon

  • 1/4  cup  packed brown sugar
  • 2  tablespoons  low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2  tablespoons  hot water
  • 2  tablespoons  miso (soybean paste)
  • 4  (6-ounce) salmon fillets (about 1 inch thick)
  • Cooking spray
  • 1  tablespoon  chopped fresh chives
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Preheat broiler.

Combine first 4 ingredients, stirring with a whisk. Arrange fish in a shallow baking dish coated with cooking spray. Spoon miso mixture evenly over fish.

Broil 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, basting twice with miso mixture. Sprinkle with chives and sesame seeds.
