BROILED SESAME SALMON
Marinade nestles in shallow slashes in the Salmon, releasing a burst of flavor in every bite. You can apply this technique whenever baking, broiling, or grilling fillets (just don't turn them over or the extra flavoring will go up in smoke!).
A coating of sesame seeds adds a nutty crunch.
