Ingredients
Scale
2 tablespoons neutral oil
1 pound salmon fillets
3 cloves garlic, grated
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon sesame oil
Pinch of white pepper
1 tablespoon butter
Sesame seeds, for garnish
Instructions
- Make the easy homemade hibachi sauce. Combine light soy sauce, honey, fresh squeezed lemon juice, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger and a pinch of white pepper in a small bowl. Stir to combine. Set aside.
- Dry the skinless salmon fillets well with paper towels. Cut into 1-inch cubes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat a cast iron or other large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add neutral oil to the hot pan, then add your salmon bites. Cook for 3-4 minutes undisturbed, until the salmon is golden brown and a little crisp. Using a fish spatula, turn the fish over in the pan. Immediately add the hibachi sauce into the skillet and cook for another 4 minutes, allowing the salmon to reach your preferred temperature and the sauce to thicken. Add butter to the pan and remove from heat, letting the butter melt into the sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Top with sesame seeds, for garnish, and serve salmon hibachi with Hibachi Fried Rice, Grilled Hibachi Vegetables and Homemade Yum Yum Sauce.
