Easy Homemade Teriyaki Sauce
Alright guys, have you made homemade teriyaki sauce before? Well, you are about to start. It is ridiculously easy, tastes amazing and will make you wonder why you ever bought it from a store before. It is a great sauce to make on a weekend and work into the rest of your week to up your weeknight-dinner-game. I make a double or triple batch of it and then use it in various recipes throughout the week. It can be used as a marinade or a simple sauce and it is a must-have for your culinary repertoire (we love it on this Delicious Teriyaki Salmon!

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Pat salmon dry with clean paper towel.
Sprinkle lightly with kosher salt and ground black pepper.
Brush some teriyaki sauce on top of each piece of salmon.
Place large cast iron skillet on the stove to bring to medium-high heat.
Add 1/2 tablespoon of oil; swirl to coat the pan.
Sear salmon (skin-side up) for approx. 2-3 minutes or until there is a nice little char on them. Flip salmon so the skin-side is down and brush with more teriyaki sauce. Move to the oven (middle rack).
Let cook 10-14 minutes (depending upon how thick your salmon is) or until it reaches an internal temperature of 140-145 degrees F.
Remove from oven and let rest 5 minutes.
Brush with additional teriyaki sauce (as much or as little as you want) and serve immediately. You can top with more teriyaki sauce if you want! Serve with broccoli and brown rice.
