How to Make Asian Spiced Salmon With Wasabi Mayonnaise

  1. **Prepare the Wasabi Mayonnaise:** In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon wasabi paste (adjust to your spice preference), 1 teaspoon rice vinegar, and 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  2. **Marinate the Salmon:** In a large resealable bag, combine 1.5 pounds salmon fillets (skin on or off, your preference), 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, 1 teaspoon grated garlic, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional). Seal the bag, pressing out excess air, and gently toss to coat the salmon evenly.
  3. **Marinate (Refrigerate):** Refrigerate the salmon in the marinade for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.
  4. **Preheat Grill:** Preheat your grill to high heat. Clean the grates well.
  5. **Grill the Salmon:** Place the salmon fillets on the preheated grill. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C). Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of your fillets.
  6. **Serve:** Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Top with the chilled wasabi mayonnaise and garnish with sesame seeds or chopped green onions (optional).
