Kristen-The Epicurean Mouse
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.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Salmon fillets 6 oz each
  • 6 tablespoon Unsalted butter softened
  • 3 tablespoon White miso paste
  • 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoon Fresh ginger grated
  • 1-2 cloves Garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoon Green onions sliced thin

Instructions
 

  • 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.
