This is hands down the easiest way to cook salmon. I love it because it is also pretty foolproof. You don’t have to worry about the skin sticking to the pan or whether it is going to lack flavor. The glaze coats the salmon perfectly and creates a crust that is crisp and caramelized. And since it cooks in the broiler, it takes less than 10 minutes! This is an ideal recipe if you are newer to cooking salmon or if you just want an easy salmon recipe.

• Salmon Filets, boneless and skinless – I prefer to use king salmon, Scottish or Atlantic salmon. You can also use black cod here.
• White Miso Paste – The umami base of the glaze. Yellow  and red miso works too but will be slightly stronger in flavor.
• Maple Syrup – Adds natural sweetness and helps caramelize the glaze. Honey can substitute for a slightly different flavor, or brown sugar for a sweeter glaze.
• Lime, juiced – Brightens and balances the glaze. A dash of rice wine vinegar works in a pinch.
• Tamari or Soy Sauce – Adds a deeper savory note. Coconut aminos are a great soy free option.
