Ingredients:
Directions:
1. Though most glazes are applied with a brush, this slightly chunky mixture of sautéed mushrooms and red peppers is spooned over the fish. The honey helps the crust brown, and a splash of vinegar and a spoonful of chili paste perk up the fish, while the vegetables add texture and color.
2. Serves 4
3. salmon
4. canola oil
5. coriander seeds
6. more
7. lbs. salmon fillet, skin on
8. Tbs. canola oil, more for the baking sheet
9. /4 tsp. ground coriander
10. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
11. /2 small red bell pepper, finely diced (about 1/4 cup)
12. scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced (white and green parts separated)
13. Tbs. finely chopped ginger
14. -1/2 oz. shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 1 cup)
15. /4 cup honey
16. Tbs. rice vinegar
17. Tbs. reduced-sodium soy sauce
18. tsp. Asian chili sauce (like Sriracha)
19. tsp. cornstarch
20. Position an oven rack about 8 inches away from the broiler element and heat the broiler to high.
21. Oil a large, rimmed baking sheet. Set the salmon skin side down on the baking sheet, sprinkle with 1 Tbs. oil, the coriander, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper, and let sit at room temperature while you prepare the sauce.
22. In a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat, cook the red pepper, scallion whites, and ginger in the remaining 2 Tbs. oil, stirring occasionally, until the red pepper and scallions start to soften and brown, about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms, raise the heat to medium high, sprinkle with 1/4 tsp. salt, and cook, stirring, until they soften and start to brown, about 3 minutes. Add the honey, vinegar, soy sauce, chili sauce, and 1/4 cup water, and bring to a simmer. Whisk the cornstarch with 1 tsp. water and stir into the glaze. Return to a simmer and cook until the glaze thickens, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat.
23. Broil the salmon until it starts to brown and becomes almost firm to the touch, about 8 minutes. Momentarily transfer to the stovetop and spoon the glaze over the salmon. Return to the oven and broil for about 1 more minute so the glaze browns and the salmon almost completely cooks through (check by using a paring knife to flake a thicker part of the fillet). Sprinkle with the scallion greens, transfer to a large platter, and serve.
