Description
Korean-Style Grilled Salmon with Sweet Bulgogi Marinade is a delicious and flavorful dish that combines the rich taste of salmon with a sweet and savory marinade.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon green onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, and chopped green onion until well combined.
- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Remove the salmon from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the salmon skin-side down on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, then carefully flip and grill for another 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove the salmon from the grill and sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a teaspoon of gochujang (Korean chili paste) to the marinade.
- Serve the grilled salmon over a bed of steamed rice or alongside grilled vegetables for a complete meal.
