Ingredients
  

  • 4 Salmon fillets
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 finely chopped garlic cloves
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons of white vinegar (you can also use rice vinegar)
  • Chopped green onions and sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions
 

  • To prepare the Sous vide, you will first need to fill its container with water, then adjust the temperature to 130°F (54°C). Leave it to preheat.
  • Season your Salmon filets by a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
  • Place the salmon fillets in a zip-lock bag. Make sure they are spread in one layer.
  • Now, for the ‘Water displacement’ technique, close the bag containing the salmon completely except one corner to allow air to come out. Dip the bag in a water filler container, keeping the zip-line above the water surface. Close the zip-line completely.
  • Dip the bag completely into the sous vide container. You can use sous vide weight magnets or kitchen metal tongs to make sure the bag doesn’t float on the surface
  • Let it cook for 45 minutes in case of 1-inch thick pieces, 70 minutes for 1.5-inch ones, and 90 minutes for 2-inch fillets pieces.

Making the honey garlic sauce

  • Mix together the minced garlic, vinegar, soy sauce, and honey in a pan and cook till it thickens.

Searing the salmon

  • Remove the salmon pieces from the bag using a fish spatula when the time is done.
  • Remove excess moisture on the salmon with a paper towel.
  • On a hot iron skillet, put on a medium-high flame, sprinkled with olive oil, sear your salmon for 1 minute with the skin side facing the pan and 30 seconds on the other side.
  • Add in the delicious honey garlic sauce and thoroughly coat the fish with the sauce. Serve with any side you prefer. Potatoes, asparagus, or steamed broccoli.
