The sweet and savory teriyaki glaze perfectly complements the flaky salmon, creating a flavor explosion that will leave you wanting more.
Imagine: a warm, toasted bun cradling succulent, flavorful salmon, all drenched in a sweet and savory glaze. Sounds dreamy, right? But it’s even better than it sounds!

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- First things first, get that salmon sorted. Pat it dry with paper towels—this helps it get beautifully crispy. Cut it into 4 (or 8, depending on how many sliders you're making) even portions. If they're not even, you'll be sad later. Trust me on this.
- Now for the teriyaki magic. In a small bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, sesame oil, and a tiny pinch of ginger. Don't go overboard with the ginger, unless you're a serious ginger fiend.
- Brush the salmon generously with the teriyaki mixture. Make sure every inch of that lovely salmon is coated. I'm serious! Every nook and cranny!
- Heat up your grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. We want a nice sear, so make sure it's hot. You don't want sad, soggy salmon.
- Carefully place the salmon fillets onto the hot surface. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they're cooked through and beautifully browned. Don't rush it; perfect salmon takes time.
- While the salmon is cooking, lightly toast your slider buns. I prefer a nice, warm bun to complete the slider experience.
- Once the salmon is cooked, let it rest for a couple of minutes before carefully flaking it with a fork. This makes it easier to assemble the sliders.
- Finally, assemble your masterpiece. Spread some of that leftover teriyaki sauce on the slider buns. Add the flaked salmon, a few sesame seeds for extra crunch and visual appeal. It’s amazing what a bit of sesame seed can do!
- Serve immediately and enjoy your incredibly flavorful and impressive Teriyaki Salmon Sliders! They're perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a fun get-together. You may need to make two batches! Because they’re so good...
📝 Notes
- For extra flavor, marinate the salmon in the teriyaki mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- Feel free to add a pinch of red pepper flakes for some extra heat!
