Furikake Miso Butter Salmon
It’s no secret that salmon has a ton of health benefits. It’s packed with omega-3 fatty acids, which help keep our brain, nerves, and eyes healthy!
Miso paste adds a TON of umami flavor, but did you know it’s actually good for you too? Yep, miso is made of fermented soybeans that create various vitamins and nutrients good for our gut.
Butter, on the other hand, isn’t known for its health benefits. But can we all agree that butter makes EVERYTHING better? Haha

Furikake Miso Butter Salmon
Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 2 7- oz salmon fillets
- 2 teaspoons furikake
Miso Butter:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- 2 tablespoons low sodium white miso paste
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 5 teaspoons light soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons Mirin
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the miso butter ingredients. Set aside.
- Heat a large pan on medium heat. Add about a tablespoon of oil then lay the salmon fillets skin side down in the pan. Gently press down on the fish so the skin doesn’t bubble while cooking. We want to skin to remain flat so it becomes evenly crisp. Cook for about 4 - 5 minutes, or until the skin becomes crisp. Flip the salmon over cook for another 2 - 3 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
- Turn the heat to low and pour in the miso butter. Move the salmon in the miso butter and baste it until it’s well coated. Remove from the pan, top with furikake. Enjoy!
