Instructions
 

Make the glaze

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the gochujang sauce, sesame oil, honey, rice wine vinegar and ginger.

Broil the salmon

  • Position an oven rack 6-inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler to high.
  • Put the salmon and asparagus on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and sprinkle lightly with salt.
  • Broil 5-7 minutes, until the salmon looks opaque. Brush half the glaze evenly over the salmon.
  • Broil for an additional 1-2 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through and the glaze is bubbling (watch so that the glaze doesn’t burn).
  • To serve, brush with the remaining glaze and sprinkle with the scallion.

Notes

The glaze can be made ahead up to a week in advance. Keep it refrigerated until ready to use.
