Servings 2
Equipment
- 1 pressure cooker I'm using an Instant Pot - but any brand will work
Ingredients
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup water
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar or honey
- 1 lime juiced
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil - not included
- 1 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger grated
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon sriracha
- 2 center cut salmon filets
Instructions
- Whisk together all of the ingredients - soy sauce, water, brown sugar or honey, lime juice, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, sesame seeds, cornstarch, and sriracha - (everything except the Salmon) in the Instant Pot.
- Add the salmon and make sure it gets covered on all sides with the sauce. Place the salmon skin side down and set
- the Instant Pot to Pressure-Cook for 1 minute.
- When the Instant Pot has finished, release the pressure manually (be careful, it will steam).
- Remove the salmon and turn the Instant Pot to Saute.
- Cook the sauce, stirring occasionally, until it has reduced and thickened-- about 2 minutes.
- Spoon the sauce over the salmon and enjoy immediately.
- Store any leftover salmon in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.
Notes
I like to serve this salmon over rice, garnished with green onion and lime-- but it is also delicious over a salad or pad thai noodles.
