Ingredients

• 1 pound salmon, divided
• 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 green onions (for garnish)
• 8 lettuce cups (butter, iceberg or romaine work best)
• ½ cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• ½ teaspoon ground ginger

Directions

• Divide salmon into 4 equal size pieces.
• In a medium size bowl, whisk together teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, olive oil and rice vinegar until well combined.
• Place salmon pieces in the teriyaki mixture and coat completely. Cover the boil with plastic wrap or foil and place in the refrigerator to marinate for 20-30 minutes.
• While the salmon is marinating, divide lettuce leaves, keeping each leaf in tact to form cups. Wash gently and set aside on paper towels to dry.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a medium size baking dish with cooking spray. Arrange salmon (not touching) in the dish and bake for 12-16 minutes, reserving the sauce. Cooking time will depend on size and thickness; its done when the salmon is a light pink color and is tender and flaky.
• While the salmon is baking, pour the sauce into a small saucepan and being to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and stir often, until sauce is reduced and thickened; about 4-5 minutes. You will know its done when it coats the back of a spoon. Set aside.
• Remove salmon from the oven. Pour thickened sauce over each piece and garnish with sesame seeds and green onion.
• Arrange lettuce cups on a platter and place half of each piece of salmon in a cup. Drizzle with Creamy Ginger Soy Sauce (recipe below), if desired.
