This miso butter salmon is sweet, savory, and full of flavor. Slightly charred with a flaky, tender interior, this salmon dish couldn't be more easier to make.
In a medium-size bowl, combine softened butter, miso paste, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, and green onions. Use a spatula to mash together.
Equally divide the miso butter on top of each salmon fillet. Use a butter knife or offset spatula to spread the butter over the entire piece of salmon.
For oven: Preheat oven to 375°. In a large skillet or baking dish, add salmon fillets. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the salmon is opaque and just about done. Then, broil on high for 1-2 minutes until the top of the salmon begins to caramelize.
For air fryer: Preheat air fryer to 400°. Line air fryer basket with parchment paper or foil. Place salmon fillets inside basket and cook for 9-10 minutes. Do not turn.
Place cooked salmon onto a platter. Drizzle remaining butter on top of salmon fillets. Garnish with green onions, sesame seeds and serve with steamed rice and vegetables.
