- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
For the Teriyaki Sauce:
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water
- 1 clove garlic, minced

Instructions
- Prepare Teriyaki Sauce: In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Bring to a simmer, then stir in the cornstarch slurry. Cook for 1–2 minutes until thickened. Set aside.
- Cook Salmon: Pat salmon dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the salmon for 4–5 minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through. Brush generously with teriyaki sauce and remove from heat.
