Ingredients

  • 2 lemons

  • 2 limes

  • ¼ cup white miso

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup

  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper

  • Pinch of cayenne pepper

  • 1 (2 1/2 pound) skin-on salmon fillet

  • Sliced scallions for garnish

Directions

  1. Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler to high. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.

  2. Juice 1 lemon and 1 lime into a small bowl. Whisk in miso, oil, maple syrup, pepper and cayenne. Place salmon, skin-side down, on the prepared pan and spread the miso mixture on top. Halve the remaining lemon and lime and arrange around the salmon, cut-sides up.

  3. Broil the salmon just until it flakes with a fork, 7 to 12 minutes. Serve with the lemon and lime halves and sprinkle with scallions, if desired.
