8. 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar

• Add garlic, ginger, soy sauce, ⅛ cup water, brown sugar, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil to a medium bowl.
• Add half of the marinade to a ziplock bag and the other half to a small saucepan and set aside.
• Place salmon filets in the ziplock bag and marinate for 30 minutes.
• Heat oil in a large skillet. Add salmon filets making sure not to overcrowd pan (I had to cook two at a time).
• Cook 3-4 minutes on each side until desired doneness.
• Meanwhile heat the reserved marinade in the saucepan and bring to a simmer.
• Add cornstarch and water to a small bowl and whisk to combine.
• Slowly whisk in the cornstarch mixture to the marinade and simmer until thickened.
• Serve immediately with the teriyaki sauce drizzled on top as well as green onions and sesame seeds for garnish, if desired.
