- Season both sides of salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
- Chop green onions.
- Put them aside.
- In a bowl, combine minced ginger, crushed garlic, brown sugar, rice vinegar, hot chili sauce, soy sauce and water. This is the sauce for simmering the salmon.
- In a deep skillet, pan sear the salmon on medium high heat for 4-5 minutes or until it's almost half done on the side.
- Flip the salmon to the other side.
- Sear for 2 minutes.
- Pour in the sauce when the salmon is still slightly raw in the middle.
- Let it simmer for 10 minutes on medium heat.
- When the sauce is reduced, add in the chopped green onions.
- Continuously scoop the sauce over the salmon for at least one minute to let the top side of the salmon absorb the sauce.
- Remove the salmon carefully from the skillet and transfer to a dish. If the sauce is not reduced to the desired consistency, leave it in the skillet and let it continue to reduce.
- Pour the sauce over the salmon and serve.
