Microwave Teriyaki Salmon Recipes

SPEEDY TERIYAKI SALMON

Steps:

• Add the salmon to a shallow dish and pour the teriyaki sauce over the fillets. Using a pair of tongs, flip the fillets to coat them completely in the sauce.
• In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the fillets to the skillet and cook on the first side for 5 minutes, being careful not to let them burn. Carefully flip the fillets and cook another 2 minutes on the second side. Remove to a plate and set aside.
• Pour the remaining teriyaki sauce from the shallow dish into the hot skillet. Grate in the zest of 1/2 lime and allow the mixture to bubble and reduce for a few minutes. You do not want it to be super thick or sticky. Once reduced gently, nestle the salmon back into the skillet and spoon the sauce over top.
• Microwave the pouch of rice according to the directions on the package. Pour the rice onto a serving platter.
• Carefully transfer the salmon to the bed of rice. Spoon some sauce over top of the salmon and rice. Garnish the platter with the cilantro leaves. Cut the remaining lime into wedges and arrange along the edge of the platter for serving.

MICROWAVE TERIYAKI SALMON

Steps:

• Place salmon skin side down (if using fillets) in shallow microwave-safe dish, glass or plastic.
• Combine the rest of the ingredients, except scallions, and pour over fish.
• Cover with plastic wrap and marinate at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes.
• The longer it marinates, the more pronounced the flavor.
• Turn fish once or twice while marinating, leaving it skin side up on the last turn (if using fillets).
• Making sure the plastic wrap seal is tight, microwave on high for 7 minutes.
• Let it stand in the microwave for an additional 3 minutes, covered, while you plate the spinach or other veggies.
• Check one fillet to ensure it is cooked to your liking (All microwaves cook a little differently; I rather like medium rare salmon if it turns out that way, but others may not-- if too rare, just pop it back in the microwave, sealed, and zap it for a minute or so).
• Plate the salmon and sprinkle with the scallions.
