Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and spray a baking dish* with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a small saucepan whisk together low-sodium soy sauce, 6 Tbsp water, honey, brown sugar, garlic, ginger and lemon juice and bring mixture to a light boil over medium heat.

Step 3

Whisk together cornstarch with remaining 2 Tbsp water, then add to sauce mixture in saucepan.

Step 4

Let mixture boil, whisking constantly, for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 5

Place salmon in baking dish then pour teriyaki sauce evenly over salmon (I also like to lift the fillets up so the sauce runs right under).

Step 6

Bake in preheated oven 12 - 15 minutes until salmon has cooked through (cooked time will vary depending on thickness of salmon).

Step 7

Serve warm topped with some of the teriyaki sauce from the baking dish (use excess sauce for steamed asparagus or broccoli on the side) and chopped green onions and sesame seeds.

Step 8

*I recommend using a baking dish that's just large enough to fit salmon while leaving a little space between fillets.
