Ingredients
1/4
cup
low sodium soy sauce
1
Tablespoon
sesame oil
2
Tablespoons
hoisin sauce
1/2
Tablespoons
Asian chili sauce
1/2
Tablespoon
sriracha
2
Tablespoons
maple syrup
1/2
Tablespoon
cornstarch
1/4
cup
water
Instructions
Add all ingredients except the cornstarch and water to a medium skillet.
Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking occasionally.
Make a slurry from the cornstarch and water by whisking it together.
With sauce bubbling on the stove, slowly add the cornstarch mixture.
With heat still on medium, cook for 3-4 minutes more, whisking occasionally, until sauce thickens a bit.
Drizzle over cooked salmon or serve as dipping sauce.
Notes
For additional heat, try adding some crushed red pepper flakes.
This recipe calls for low sodium soy sauce. If using regular soy sauce, it might be a little saltier than our version.
You can substitute the maple syrup with honey if desired.
