Steps

1Whisk together white miso paste, mirin, sake, sugar, and soy sauce to create the glaze.
2Pat salmon fillets dry and spread the miso glaze generously over each fillet, letting it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
3Heat vegetable oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the salmon skin-side down for 3-4 minutes until crispy.
4Flip the salmon, transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C), and bake for 8-12 minutes, or until cooked through and flaky.
5Serve hot, garnished with sliced green onion.
