Walla Walla Salmon Recipe

Walla Walla Salmon Recipe

  • 1/3 cup Safeway SELECT Sliced Almonds
  • 2 large Walla Walla or other sweet onions
  • 1/2 cup purchased teriyaki sauce, divided
  • 1 tablespoon Safeway SELECT Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
  • 6 pieces salmon fillet (about 6 oz. each)
  • Lemon wedges
  1. Preheat oven broiler. Pour almonds in a 12-inch nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Shake or stir often until nuts are golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Pour from pan and set aside.
  2. Wipe frying pan clean. Thinly slice onions and add them to frying pan along with 3 tablespoons teriyaki sauce and the oil. Stir often over medium heat until onions are very soft, 15 to 20 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, rinse salmon and pat dry. Place fillets, skin side down, on an oiled rack of a broiler pan. Brush about half the remaining teriyaki sauce over salmon. Broil salmon 4 inches from heat for 4 minutes. Brush with remaining teriyaki sauce, then continue broiling until salmon is just barely opaque in thickest part (cut to test), 2 to 4 more minutes.
  4. Transfer salmon to a serving platter. Top each fillet with equal portions of onions and sprinkle with toasted almonds. Garnish with lemon wedges.
