Salmon Teriyaki

Salmon is a great source of lean protein and healthy fats. Wild salmon is the best choice for this recipe because it is much higher in omega-3 than Atlantic (farmed) salmon.

Ingredients:

• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 3 tbsp cooking wine
• 2 tbsp maple syrup
• 1 lb salmon (split into 4 fillets)
• 2 tsp olive oil

1. Put all marinade ingredients in a resealable bag.
2. Add the salmon and mix well.
3. Marinate for 15-30 minutes.

5. Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat.
6. When hot, add oil and swirl it around to coat the pan.
7. Add salmon; sear 2 minutes on each side.
8. Turn heat to low.
9. Add in the reserved marinade.
10. Cover and cook for around 4-5 minutes or open the lid after 5 minutes and cook until all liquid is gone.
