Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Step 2

Whisk mirin, miso, soy sauce, brown sugar, and lime juice together in a bowl or high-rimmed tray. Immerse salmon fillets in the marinade. Marinate for 15 minutes.

Step 3

Heat a well oiled grill pan over medium heat. Add the salmon fillets, reserving marinade in the bowl. Cook, flipping as needed, until grill marks form, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from heat.
