  1. Healthy Recipe, Broiled Gochujang-Glazed Salmon

    Gochujang is a Korean fermented pepper paste with a spicy-sweet, pungent flavor that can take the blandness out of practically anything. Here, it’s the key ingredient in a simple glaze that’s brushed on omega-rich salmon fillets. Pair it with your favorite green vegetable or any grain for a simple but elegant meal. Leftovers are great flaked into a rice bowl with veggies. Adapted from skinnytaste.com. Serves 4. – Susan Puckett

    Ingredients

    • Non-stick cooking spray
    • 1 tablespoon gochujang
    • 2 teaspoons mirin
    • 2 teaspoons soy sauce or tamari
    • 2 teaspoons honey 
    • ½ teaspoon toasted sesame oil
    • 1 or 2 garlic cloves, grated
    • ½ teaspoon grated fresh ginger 
    • 4 (4- to 6-ounce) salmon fillets
    • Kosher salt
    • 1 or 2 thinly sliced scallions
    • Black or white toasted sesame seeds (optional)

    Instructions

    1. Position a rack 4 to 5 inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler to high. 
    2. Line a sheet pan with foil and spray lightly with cooking oil spray. Set aside. 
    3. Make the glaze: In a small bowl, stir together the gochujang, mirin, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger until blended.
    4. Place the salmon on the prepared pan (skin-side down if skin on) and sprinkle lightly with salt. Run under the broiler for 2 minutes. 
    5. Brush the salmon with the glaze and broil 3 to 5 minutes longer, depending on thickness, just when the flesh begins to flake when pressed with a fork.
    6. Transfer to a platter or serving plate and garnish with scallions and sesame seeds, if desired.
