Every now and then, I come up with a recipe that sticks with me. Like one of those phone numbers you can’t seem to forget. A tried and true one that becomes sort of a go to– one that you will make when you have company. Yep, this one is a keeper. It’s super simple but packs a major flavor punch. It’s also pretty healthy, too.
This teriyaki salmon recipe is actually inspired by something my mom makes on a weekly basis. I added a couple things (ginger, sesame seeds, green onion) and the result is still fantastic. I usually serve this with a side of sauteed kale and baked sweet potato with butter and a dash of brown sugar.
