Calories 350kcal
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1 1/4 cups sugar
- 1/3 cup pineapple juice
- 3 cloves garlic minced or 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon grated ginger or 3/4 teaspoon ginger powder
- 3/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 4 skinless salmon fillets about 4 ounces each
- vegetable oil for oiling the grill grate
For Serving
- cooked white rice
- stir-fried mixed vegetables (e.g., cabbage, broccoli, zucchini, onions, carrots)
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the soy sauce, sugar, pineapple juice, garlic, ginger, and black pepper. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. When the mixture begins to foam/rise, immediately remove from the heat.
- Remove 1 cup of the mixture from the saucepan. Set it aside and let it cool to room temperature. This will be used as a marinade.
- Place the salmon filets in the marinade and let marinate for 30 minutes to 2 hours—any longer and the salmon may become mushy.
- Combine the cornstarch and water in a small bowl and whisk to create a slurry.
- Place the saucepan with the remaining sauce over medium-high heat. Slowly whisk the cornstarch slurry into the sauce. Continue stirring until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool completely before transferring to an airtight container to refrigerate. The sauce will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- Preheat the grill to 350°F. Oil the grill grate with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook the salmon for 4 to 6 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 130 to 145°F. The fish should release easily when cooked thoroughly.
- Drizzle some of the thickened sauce over the salmon and serve with rice and stir-fried vegetables.
