Best Grilled Salmon Recipe with Teriyaki-style Glaze

This has to be the best Grilled Salmon Recipe. Not only is it delicious, but it is simplicity, itself, to prepare.

The Japanese Teriyaki-style sauce is a lovely twist and is further enhanced by the crushed coriander seeds. Sake is Japanese rice wine and mirin is a kind of sweeter rice wine with a distinctive flavor.

This recipe can be grilled or baked - if you go the baked route, do so at a high heat (400° F / 200° C) for 5 - 10 minutes.

Ingredients:

You will need a greased baking sheet.

Method:

1. Heat the grill to a high temperature.
2. In a pot, mix together the sake, soy sauce, mirin and sugar. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves and then simmer until the mixture thickens - about 3 - 5 minutes.
3. Brush this mixture over the salmon fillets. Sprinkle over the crushed coriander seeds.
4. Grill the fillets for 5 - 10 minutes, depending on the heat of your grill. Check the fillets after a few minutes and baste with any extra sauce.
5. To my taste, the salmon is ready when the outside is cooked, but the inside is slightly underdone. You may cook yours until it is cooked all the way through if desired.
6. Serve with mashed potatoes and a big salad or fresh asparagus.
