Serves/Makes: 4 | Ready In: 1-2 hrs
Ingredients:
1 pound salmon fillets or steaks, about 1" thick
2 cups (or more) water
1/4 cup dry sherry, sake or white wine
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 pieces fresh ginger, bruised, each about 1/4" thick
1 tablespoon soy sauce
***Teriyaki Drizzling Sauce***
1/2 cup vegetable broth
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon dry sherry
1 piece (1" size) fresh ginger, cut into about 6 coins
1/4 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Directions:
Place the salmon in a deep skillet or pan just big enough to hold the pieces. Add just enough water to barely cover. Remove the salmon to a plate and set aside.
To the water in the pan, add the sherry, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, and soy sauce. Bring this mixture to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes for the flavors to meld.
Using a slotted spoon or heatproof spatula, gently lower the salmon (skin side up if using fillets), into the simmering liquid; make sure the liquid just covers the fish. Adjust the heat so the surface of the liquid barely ripples and only a few bubbles rise to the surface.
Cook 8 to 10 minutes, then test for doneness with a fork or instant read thermometer. The flesh should be flaky. If using an instant-read thermometer, it should register 135 degrees F.
Remove the skin from the salmon and place salmon on a plate. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
About 30 minutes before serving, let the salmon come to room temperature. Gently flake with a fork and serve over rice.
For Teriyaki Drizzling Sauce: Bring broth, soy sauce, honey, sherry, ginger and sesame oil to a boil in a saucepan. Boil until reduced by half, about 3 to 5 minutes. Set aside. (Remove ginger before serving.)
