Teriyaki Ginger Salmon - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
2 1/2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons peanut oil
8 ounces salmon fillets
2 tablespoons chopped ginger
1 tablespoon rice wine or 1 tablespoon dry sherry
2 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions or 2 tablespoons green onions
1 small lemon wedge

Preparation

Combine soy sauces and sugar to make teriyaki sauce and set aside.
Heat the pan or skillet to very hot.
Add the oil.
Sear the fish skin side down.
Turn and sear the other side.
Add the ginger and saute briefly.
Add 1/4 cup water and cover the pan.
Steam for 2-3 minutes, adding more water as necessary.
Uncover and add the teriyaki sauce and as the sauce reduces to a syrup, turn the fish in it a couple of times.
When the sauce becomes a glaze, add the wine, scallions, and a squeeze of lemon.
Turn the fish once to twice more until well done.
Remove to a serving dish.
