Gochujang Salmon

gochujang paste

garlic (minced)

lime (juiced)

honey

sesame oil

soy sauce

rice wine vinegar

red pepper flakes (optional)

salmon filets

olive oil (or avocado oil)

Sesame seeds (for garnish)

green onions (for garnish)

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

In a bowl, add the gochujang, garlic, lime juice, honey, sesame oil, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Whisk well and set the bowl aside.

Pat the salmon filets dry and season with a bit of salt and pepper.

Heat oil in a large cast-iron skillet set over high heat. Place the salmon, skin side down, on the hot pan and sear for 3 minutes to brown the skin. While it’s searing, brush the flesh with the gochujang glaze.

Transfer the pan to the oven and roast until the fish is just cooked through to your desired doneness, 8-10 minutes. Aim for an internal temperature of 125-135 degrees F, as the temperature will continue to rise a bit even after pulling the skillet from the heat.

Let the fish rest 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onion, and serve as desired.

Followed the recipe almost to a t. Only change was I drizzled half the marinade on the salmon, wrapped in in foil and baked at 400 for 10 minutes and then seared on medium heat for 1 minute with the rest of the marinade. 

The result was spicy, flaky, melt in your mouth salmon

I made your gochujang salmon with my freshly caught Lake Michigan salmon fillets.  Your fish recipe was super easy to make and it tasted amazing!!  I will be making your salmon recipe again!

I needed a new salmon recipe and yours really delivered. What amazing taste that Gochujang delivered! This will be making a regular appearance in my house!

We had this for dinner and it was spectacular!!!
I followed the recipe exactly and served it with some stir fried greens and some jasmine rice. DELISH!!
It was so easy to make and tasted like I had been to a restaurant and ordered a to go option! 
We'll definitely be having this again :)

My whole family loved this recipe! It was a great change from our normal salmon recipes.  I'll be making this again and again over the next few weeks!
