Oyster Sauce For Salmon .....

Oyster Sauce For Salmon
This recipe was shared by our daughter-in-law's sister Karen who is one of the best cooks I know! We loved it and I know you will too!
Ingredients:
Fillet of Salmon
Butter
***
Sauce:
bottled oyster sauce
olive oil
thinly sliced green onions
garlic
peeled and grated fresh ginger
***
Directions:
Pour melted butter over salmon fillet and grill or bake.
***
Although the sauce does not have specific amounts, I will share what I use to prepare a full fillet of salmon, that being one side of the fish. You can increase the amounts of a flavor or decrease according to your tastes. The sauce is high in sodium and I use it sparingly or more like you might use tartar sauce.
***
1/4 cup oyster sauce
1/4 cup water
slight amount of olive oil
1 or so Tablespoons sliced green onions
1 clove garlic crushed
2 teaspoons to 1 Tablespoon ginger.
***
Bring oyster sauce and water to a boil to reduce thickened state and salty flavor. Use a one to one formula for the water and oyster sauce.
***
In a small skillet saute the thinly sliced green onions in olive oil. When transparent add crushed garlic and stir briefly. Add reduced oyster sauce and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add ginger. Allow to set and steep for a few minutes. If necessary reheat before serving. When the salmon is cooked, pour a glaze of the Oyster Sauce over the salmon.
