Sesame-Glazed Salmon

Turn oven on broil at 500ºF.

Whisk all ingredients for the glaze (everything except salmon). Lay salmon flat in a deep dish then pour in 1/3 of glaze mixture. Using tongs, gently flip salmon several times in mixture, then let sit for 10 minutes (skin up if your salmon has skin).

Meanwhile, simmer remaining sauce in a small saucepan on low until thick, about 10 minutes.

Transfer salmon to a baking sheet (skin down) and broil in the oven for 8–10 minutes depending how thick fillets are. Once salmon is finished cooking, spoon simmered sauce on top and serve.

Note: I enjoy this meal with rice and asparagus. For the asparagus, I tossed it with olive oil, salt, and pepper and cooked with the salmon (same temperature and time). For the rice, I cooked it according to the directions on the package with the addition of 1 tablespoon butter, juice from 1 lime, and salt and pepper to taste.
